The fourth and final volume in Gilbert Rowlands acclaimed Froberger series completes the landmark recording project on specialist early music label Athene. This double album is the latest instalment of Rowlands authoritative traversal of the complete Harpsichord Suites by Johann Jakob Froberger a composer of profound influence whose innovations shaped the very form of the Baroque suite later adopted by Bach and Handel. Praised for its glorious sound and energy and a good forward drive, the series has garnered widespread critical recognition. Recorded in the sympathetic acoustic of Holy Trinity Church, Weston, in October 2024, the album reunites Rowland with engineer John Taylor, whose audiophile-standard production has underpinned the previous volumes.
