Praise for this and other sonatas published by Instant Harmony:
“All the sonatas are well presented, with a comprehensive Preface…. These are a fascinating set of sonatas that will be new to many readers. They are definitely worth investing in to boost your repertoire collection from the late 17th century.”
Laura Justice, review in The Recorder Magazine, 32, no. 4 (winter 2012): 143.
The sonatas by Fiocco and Steffani were recorded by Marianne Mezger with Trio Basiliensis on Concerning Babell & Son: Music Composed, Arranged and Transcribed by Charles and William Babell (Ars Musici AM 1167-2, cp1996).
