One of the great joys of music is its endless possibility to surprise. For example, here is a CD that contains music like nothing you may have heard before. Maya Homburger plays the baroque violin A baroque violin is, in common usage, any violin whose neck, fingerboard, bridge, and tailpiece are of the type used during the baroque period. Such an instrument may be an original built during the baroque and never changed to modern form; or a modern replica built as a baroque , Barry Guy plays the double-bass, and together they make sounds both archaic and futuristic. Ceremony starts with a brief selection by Biber (1644-104), then moves on to compositions by Barry Guy, who was born in 1947. Whether playing solo or weaving their sounds together, these two players seem in tune both with each other and with the expressive possibilities inherent in their instruments and in these compositions. This is music that really draws the listener in, and the clean recording quality allows for maximal max·i·mal
