English Chamber Orchestra - Bach, Handel & Telemann (2023)

Baroque music was the core repertoire of the Goldsbrough Orchestra in the 1950s, before it changed its name to English Chamber Orchestra and widened the range of its musical register, becoming one of the most recorded ensembles of the classical industry. 18th-century music has yet remained a specialty of the ECO, of which this collection gives a glimpse. Performers featured include Anne-Sophie Mutter, Maurice André, Frank Peter Zimmermann, the Choir of King’s College, Sir Charles Mackerras, and more.
