On the fantastic original “Velen” Ruckers harpsichord, recorded in a church on the Lower Rhine, Bob van Aspern shows with his inimitably flexible and colorful playing why this repertoire is so loved by connoisseurs. The musical proximity to Johann Jacob Froberger and the Parisian colleagues is not only to be heard, but also described and elucidated by Bob van Aspern in the as always comprehensive booklet – even several works by Parisian “guest composers” are included as in the previous volumes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aeolus","offers":[{"title":"SACD","offer_id":46013012508906,"sku":"4026798101848","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/3897333-2667310.jpg?v=1778253038"},{"product_id":"froberger-edition-vol-6-ricercar","title":"Froberger Edition, Vol. 6: Ricercar","description":"Classical Music","brand":"Aeolus","offers":[{"title":"SACD","offer_id":46027579883754,"sku":"4026798106010","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/3811446_bed3a0f7-8228-4275-9e14-7565ef636fef.jpg?v=1778282927"},{"product_id":"bob-van-asperen-froberger-edition-capriccio-7-238088","title":"Bob Van Asperen Froberger Edition: Capriccio 7","description":"\u003cp\u003eA \"seventeenth-century Art of Fugue\" -- The seventh volume of the Froberger Edition on Aeolus is perhaps the craziest: a roller-coaster ride through the world of the fugue, performed with virtuosity and the spirit of adventure. Bob van Asperen plays himself here into an absolute frenzy! Froberger's Capriccios show a composer who not only perfectly mastered his métier, but drove his art forward to new heights. Not without reason, the accompanying text (written by the performer) points out many connections to the works of J. S. Bach. With Bob van Asperen, the Edition features an exceptional interpreter who performs these works just as passionately as knowledgeably. Eighteen multi-part Capriccios are to be heard, also including a recently discovered work. As in all the other volumes of the Edition, an important historical instrument is employed: here it is the large Arp Schnitger organ of the Ludgerikirche in Norden (Eastern Friesland, Germany), which with its numerous stops allows the wealth of polyphony to resound.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aeolus","offers":[{"title":"SACD","offer_id":46027628249322,"sku":"4026798107017","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/3370987.jpg?v=1778293060"},{"product_id":"louis-couperion-edition-vol-3-pieces-de-81644","title":"Louis Couperion Edition, Vol. 3: Pieces De Clavecin","description":"\u003cp\u003eBob van Asperen and AEOLUS have now realized the third volume of the Louis Couperin Edition.
