Background: John Garth was born not far from Durham in 1721 and was a pupil of Charles Avison, the Newcastle organist and composer. Garth was himself a gifted organist and composer. The works recorded here were published in 1760 and were composed at a time of great change in British music - away from the baroque concerti grossi of Corelli and Geminiani towards the three movement 'da camera' approach developed by composers such as JC Bach.

These Garth concertos contain influences of both styles and are utterly delightful listening. This world premiere recording features period instruments.
