Playing on period instruments, John Wallace and the other members of The Wallace Collection perform this highly attractive repertoire with the gusto, precision and grace for which they have become internationally recognised. From the opening “punching” of the Sibelius Petite Suite to the stylish solace of Ewald’s slow movements, this lesser-known repertoire is now receiving the exposure it deserves.
