Baroque Edition / The Artistry Of Erik Bosgraaf

"That man can do anything!" exclaimed Frans Brüggen, after hearing a concert by Erik Bosgraaf in 2007. The eminent recorder player and conductor's encouragement was the starting point of an international career and rise to fame of the young recorder virtuoso.

Erik Bosgraaf is one of the most remarkable recorder players of today. Equally at home in early as well as contemporary music he extends the limits of his instrument, achieving an extreme range of expression and unheard-of effects. He travels the world, giving his unorthodox concerts combining the old and the new, in his own inimitable way. He worked with the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, Hong Kong Philharmonic, Melbourne SO, The Hague Residentie Orchestra, as a soloist and even as conductor.

This 5-CD set, "The Artistry of Erik Bosgraaf" brings together the most successful recordings made for the Brilliant Classics label, featuring his iconic "Der Fluyten-Lusthof" by Jacob van Eyck, Bach Recorder Concertos, Vivaldi Recorder Concertos, Handel Recorder Sonatas and Telemann Recorder Sonatas, recordings which were met with outstanding critical acclaim in the international press.
