  • Description

    Apollo's Fire, under founder and director Jeannette Sorrell, combines Telemann's imaginative Don Quixote Suite with other suites and concertos by the composer that reveal his cosmopolitan air and whimsical nature.

    Tilting at windmills. The long-suffering Sancho Panza. Sighs of love for Dulcinea. The familiar and fanciful themes of the Don Quixote legend are brought to life by Apollo's Fire in Telemann's imaginative portrayal. The Don Quixote Suite sits alongside other suites and concertos by the composer that reveal his cosmopolitan air and whimsical nature.

    "Hugely entertaining and characterful...a brilliant portrayal of episodes from Don Quixote. Brilliantly executed with flair and panache." - Fanfare

    "Enormous rhythmic zest...poetic and elegant." - The Cleveland Plain Dealer

    "From the very opening, I was enthralled - there is a sort of communal ease about the band, a sense of humour and genuine enjoyment." - Early Music Review
