This extensive release collects together all the recordings Café Zimmermann has made for Alpha: the fruit of many years of work, research and collaboration. Each separate performance has been realized with the greatest care, both in selecting the interpreting artists and in seeking out the very best acoustic conditions for the recording: the instruments, locations, and ample, well-calibrated sound balance have all been perfectly captured by Hugues Deschaux and d'Aline Blondiau, who from first to last ensured an entirely unprecedented sound transparency for every instrumental line. The combination of these elements has contributed to make Café Zimmermann a landmark among baroque ensembles. Here is a sixteen-album set to celebrate the ensemble’s 20th anniversary!

Excerpts from select reviews of the previously released volumes included in this set:

Vivaldi: Estro Armonico - Libro Secondo

Any Vivaldi aficionado looking for a worthy Op. 3 addition to their library will need no further encouragement. – ClassicsToday

Bach: Integrale Concerts Plusieurs

The performances are full of contrast, characterfully ornamented, and just plain fun to listen to, particularly if you know the works well. They are also splendidly recorded. Highly recommended, especially for fans of Bach on period instruments.
