- The Six Trio Sonatas of J. Dismas Zelenka, Reported by Michael
O'Donovan, solo bassoon, Mexico National Symphony Orchestra: "there is a
terrific new recording of the 6 Zelenka Sonatas (DG Archive 2708 027),
in which they quite correctly use a string bass as the continuo instrument; it's
really a pleasure to hear the accompaniment an octave lower than the bassoon, as
the solo stands out so much more. The oboe playing on this record is nothing
less than amazing!"
