George Fr. Handel - Violin Sonata in D minor, HWV 359a (c. 1724)

[@evanmisejka4062]

Handel's sonatas are divine

A true beauty which I've never heard of. Thank you again (and again).

Just learned that Andrew Manze is a violinist! Always fun to hear conductors play instruments who are only known for conducting; e.g. Osmo Vänska on clarinet, Gerard Schwarz on trumpet, Jaap van Zweden on violin, etc.

Gerard Schwartz plays Trumpet?

[@whatafreakinusername]

@@WilliamFord972 Yes, he was the Principal Trumpet of the New York Philharmonic in the early 70s

And a incredible one at that, his recordings of Biber, Corelli, Handel, and Bach are of the finest quality.

Also known as the flute sonata in E minor. Very popular with flautists 👍🏻👍🏻
