The sonatas for viola da gamba and basso continuo by the Magdeburg Cathedral Kapellmeister Johann Friedrich Ruhe are a real discovery! Georg Zeike performs them on the viola da gamba together with Bernadett Mészáros on the harpsichord and – this is the special feature of this recording – with the fortepiano, which was highly modern in Ruhe’s time. How does the venerable “Madame Gamba” harmonize with the two different keyboard instruments? Experienced chamber music partners who are members of high-ranking early music ensembles demonstrate this in their exciting juxtaposition.
