That hasn't stopped the celebratedrecorder player Dan Laurin from takingup his countryman's sonatas on his owninstrument. With his fellow musicians in ParadisoMusicale, Laurin opts for a justifiablyItalianate slant - providing great varietyin realizations characterized by bold andstriking harmonization.
