Rachel Podger and Gary Cooper give characteristically intelligent and insightful performances of all these pieces, with Cooper offering occasional discreet and imaginative embellishment of the keyboard part.
The playing exhibits a discernible sense of line, and Cooper’s sonorous fortepiano is nicely complemented by Podger’s clean but never acerbic-sounding period violin.
