ON THIS CD, SCHOLA BUCCINA perform a repertoire (mainly composed for the baroque trombone) spanning more than five hundred years, from Dufay to Beethoven. Perhaps the most notable accomplishment is their interpretation of Bach«s Ten canons on the first eight notes of the Aria ground from the Goldberg Variations, which was found discovered in France in1975, jotted down in the margin of the original manuscript of the Goldberg Variations. A beautiful improvisation on bronzelurs (faithful copies), recorded at Lake BÅšven one Swedish summer night, is also included.
