Torrent description

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All the extant substantial works by musically obscure (but historically significant for his other achievements) and unpublished Scottish composer, who nevertheless was musically tutored by Corelli.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 - of course - in Italian, and sung by Catherine Bott, a first-rate baroque specialist.

There is a lot of information regarding the music here on the Hyperion site:

I\'ve decided to upload this as, frankly, people are generally not going to stumble across this recording by accident!
