Hasse: Sonatas and Trio Sonatas represents the maiden voyage for decade-old period instrument ensemble Epoca Barocca on the Chandos label. For the occasion, Epoca Barocca has elected to perform six previously unrecorded chamber works of late Baroque composer Johann Adolf Hasse, which have scrupulously been sought out in manuscripts and early prints canvassed from the libraries of Europe. Hasse's own library of compositions perished in a fire during the bombardment of Leipzig by forces under Frederick the Great in 1760, so in Hasse's case it is hard to know where the good stuff is and how much of it is left. Epoca Barocca is to be commended for making this effort, and its interpretation of this music is top drawer.
