Occasionally in the Egyptian desert, the winds blew the sands away to reveal long-lost pyramids, sphinxes or treasures of untold beauty. In the world of Classical Music some of these treasures have been long known: the three most played composers in concert halls – Beethoven, Mozart or Bach, for instance. However, many nearby musical gems lay hidden till quite recently: Marin Marais, Francesco Barsanti, Benedetto Marcello to name but a few. The splendour of these musical jewels is just as grand as the more well-known pieces, if not more so because of their freshness. We mix the novel and the known so you can get just the right balance for an equally surprising and soothing listening experience among the sands of time!
