William Babell: 24 Son... - Cappella Musicale Enrico Stuart - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

A first-ever complete recording for collections of Baroque chamber music which capture the elegance, formality and lively culture of London in the 1710s. London in the early 18th century was a city animated by music: Italian opera dominated the newly-built theatres, French-style dances brought refinement to the salons, and the English cathedral tradition had fully adapted to a native style of text setting. It was from within this vibrant soundscape that William Babell (c.1690-1723) emerged - an English musician of remarkable versatility, whose keyboard brilliance and expressive chamber works captured the spirit of his place and time.
