About the album

Each new album by Antoinette Lohmann and her ensemble Furor Musicus charts unknown territories, and this one, with repertoire by the German composer Johann Fischer (1646-1716/17) is no exception.

The Dutch Baroque violinist Antoinette Lohmann retrieved the illustrious master from oblivion and frolics like an accomplished fiddler through Fischer's elegant tunes at the intersection between art and folk.
