W XVII i XVIII wieku na terenie Europy pojawiły się setki wydruków z muzyką gitarową. Zadziwiający jest fakt, że zaledwie dziewięć z nich dotyczy twórców hiszpańskich, a więc kraju, pochodzenia gitary. Tytuł płyty odnosi się do czwartej z nich, zawierającej wiele wspaniałych wariacji Hiszpańskich autorstwa Santiago de Murcii. Ich efekt w wykonaniu Private Musicke i Pierre'a Pitzla jest olśniewający.
On previous discs, Christian Poltéra has combined concertos with chamber works by composers such as Frank Martin and Arthur Honegger. The recipe proved highly successful, resulting in more rounded portraits of each composer, as well as of the performer himself: while Poltéra’s performance of Martin’s Cello Concerto was described in Gramophone as having ‘an inspirational intensity to compare with the celebrated Du Pré/Barbirolli recording of the Elgar Concerto’, the reviewer in Fanfare praised him for ‘playing with the kind of semi-arrogant, swashbuckling carefree attitude that suits Honnegger to a tee’. As he now proceeds to Samuel Barber – some twenty years younger than both Martin and Honegger – Poltéra opens his programme with the Cello Concerto, tailored especially for the Georgian-born cellist Raya Garbousova in 1945. The 25-minute long work is one of only three concertos by Barber, and is remarkable for the way in which he balances out the natural lyric expressiveness of his earlier music with a more urgent, acerbic style, highly rhythmic and intense. That lyricism and expressivity is of course most famously heard in the enormously popular Adagio for strings, which closes the disc in a performance by the strings of the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra under Andrew Litton. But before that, Christian Poltéra and his regular chamber-music partner Kathryn Stott gives a performance of the Sonata for Cello and Piano, composed while Barber was still a student, but brilliantly written for the two instruments.

Według nielicznych dostępnych danych biograficznych Francisco Correa de Arauxo (lub de Acevedo) urodził się w Sewilli. Prawdopodobnie w 1584 roku został ochrzczony. Mianowany organistą Salvador – drugiego kościoła Sewilli a w 1599, przyjął święcenia kapłańskie w 1608. Facultad Organica to jego największe dzieło – kompozytora o randze Jana Sebastiana Bacha.

Przez ostatnie lata Giuliano Carmignola zyskał reputację jednego z najwybitniejszych interpretatorów muzyki Baroku. Uważany za „księcia barokowych skrzypków” prezentuje interpretacje Sonat i Partit Bacha, tym samym wzbogacając obszerny katalog Deutsche Grammophon o pierwsze nagrania tych kompozycji na instrumencie historycznym. W jego pełnym pasji i introspekcyjnym podejściu do tych utworów widać głębokie rozmiłowanie w muzyce Jana Sebastiana i prawdziwy artyzm. Tracklista: CD 1 Sonata No. 1 in G minor, BWV 1001 1.
