This new CD on Phoenix Edition presents the music of Seventeenth Century English composer John Jenkins. Jenkins was a prolific composer who had a long career, spanning the time from Byrd and Purcell. He lived to see great changes in English music and is noted for developing the consort fantasia for viols. The Hamburger Ratsmusik, an ensemble that has won repeated praise from the press for its excellent knowledge of baroque style, performs the Fantasy Suites for violin and viola da gamba.
