Hats off to Montreal cellist and gambist by adoption Elinor Frey, who, over the course of her releases, convinced the Belgian label Passacaille to perform world premieres of old repertoires. Angelo Maria Fiorè, Antonio Vandini and Giuseppe Dall’Abaco preceded Moselle Jean Baur, born in 1719 and died in Paris in the 1770s. Antoine Malette-Chénier on the harp and Octavie Dostaler-Lalonde (2nd cello). This sharing is more than a generous idea, because the Sonata for harp and pianoforte is the jewel of the CD, interpreted with a confusing intelligence in the balance (rather pianoforte and harp) of the two instruments. Baur’s harp work begs to be explored, if we judge by the formidable minuet of the 6th Sonata for solo harp, at the end of a disc which also includes three sonatas for cello and a sonata for two violins. transcribed for two cellos piccolos.
