The music ranges from huge Baroque (MissaSalisburgensis, Venetian polychoral, Charpentier Te Deum) to intimate Baroque(the Goldberg Variations, Bach cello suites, solo cantatas) overwhelming inits impact and emotional content. Of course, Baroque music is also an ideallifestyle choice nothing quite like it to get you going in the morning or toaccompany your final thoughts at the end of the day . . . it s all here tosample and to revel in.
