Clerk of Penicuik - Lion of Scotland (c18)(Hyperion/Bott)[MP3]

John Clerk of Penicuik (1676-1755) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_John_Clerk,_2nd_Baronet http://www.concal.org/clerk.htm All the extant substantial works by musically obscure (but historically significant for his other achievements) and unpublished Scottish composer, who nevertheless was musically tutored by Corelli. These are cantatas in a high baroque style, written in Italian and Latin, and sung by Catherine Bott, a first-rate baroque specialist. There is a lot of information regarding the music here on the Hyperion site: http://www.hyperion-records.co.uk/al.asp?al=CDA67007 I've decided to upload this as, frankly, people are generally not going to stumble across this recording by accident!
