The musical styles of Europe always arrive a bit later in Spain, but with the advantage of being transformed until they reach their full maturity. This album showcases a unique version of how a Haydn symphony was transformed for a performance in Seville Cathedral. But the real interest is in the hitherto unrecorded masterpieces by Antonio Ripa and Joseph Barrera. As always, Enrico Onofri and the magnificent Seville Baroque Orchestra provide a first-rate performance.
