Musica Antigua Koln, gone,but not forgotten5
A marvelous treatment of Pachelbel's lesser known works with a definitive performance of the all-too famous Canon. Too many interpreters of the Canon use the wrong tempo for this work, too slow and sentimental. This group does not and they have made it possible to listen to this work without gagging. They also do a wonderful job of presenting Buxtehude's chamber music. This composer is too often associated with ponderous Baroque organ music. This has been rectified in recent years by Musica Antigua Koln and the numerous other fine Baroque chamber groups and orchestras which have developed in the past twenty years( Freiburger Barock, Akadamie fur Alte Musik, Philharmonia Baroque, Boston Baroque Portland Baroque, Seattle Baroque, Venice Baroque, Il Giardino Armonico,Jordi Savall....the list goes on and on). Sad to say, Musica Antigua Koln is no more. They disbanded the ensemble a few years ago. If you can get your hands on any of their recordings, you should do so. There will be no more.
