Notes and Editorial Reviews
Julius Berger's recording of the complete extant Boccherini concertos is in many ways a landmark... He is a fine player, though his tempos are never virtuosic...and his emotional range is carefully defined; but the opportunity to hear Boccherini's instrument—its angelic top and earthier middle registers in particular (as the bottom strings are almost never heard except in the often superbly idiomatic music)... The South-West German Chamber Orchestra under Vladislav Czarnecki accompany Berger with meticulous attention to details of articulation and dynamics.
