German viola player Nadine Henrichs presents an exquisite collection of original works and arrangements for viola from the 18th century. Most pieces are solistic while two sonatas by Flackton and Bach are for small chamber ensemble. With this album, Nadien Henrichs has fulfilled a long-standing dream of hers: starting an attempt to elevate the baroque viola from its ridiculed niche existence.
