Musical Travellers
With Richard Baker.

He achieved fame and fortune among the Spanish aristocracy, but his luck changed and he died in poverty. Including:
Boccherini Cello Concerto No 3 in D
(1st mvt) Anner Bylsma , Tafelmusik, director Jeanne Lamon
Sammartini Oboe Concerto in D
Heinz Holliger , I
Musici Boccherini Symphony in D minor, Op 12 No 4 (Delia Casa del Diavolo) (3rd mvt) London Festival Orchestra, conductor Ross Pople
