This is a beautiful and authentically Venetian disk ("historically informed"). The recorder - when perfectly mastered as here - as well competes with the violin with flute. Let's be more explicit: if Heifetz, it raves (and we had a good reason), if a particular flutist modern ferry on Boehm flute, speed is synonymous with mastery of the instrument and not even arise not the issue (horresco referens) ... While the recorder, my good sir, but see, you can not think ...
Fazit (as we say in German): A beautiful walk in Venice through three centuries worth its 5 stars (with soloist, that will make 6, although it has not all his records - and it would be a shame ).
