Written sometime between 1697 and 1706, these duos for viola da gamba are a joy to listen to. Inevitably, with these dates in mind, the repertoire invites comparison with the towering influence of Marais, the eclectic Forqueray, and user-friendly Boismortier. In fact, these full-scale duos are a demanding must for the encouragement of self-sufficiency for serious gamba players. The six sonatas interweave sonatas da chiesa and da camera, infiltrate Italianate movements with accompanying dances, and seamlessly alternate melodic and harmonic functions for the two instruments. The tessitura never goes either very high or very low (with the occasional exception, as in the deep opening of the G minor sonata), but the imitation and counterpoint can be fast and furious (the F major Allegro), the glancing suspensions lightly leading (D major Adagio), and the long lines always full of musical interest. Susie Napper and Margaret Little have played together since 1985, and it shows in the impeccable ensemble, in the sensitive antiphonal exchanges, and in a melding of sound which for much of the time seems as if there is only one instrument between the two of them. If I have a reservation at all, it is because there is a coyness and shyness between the two of them. Resonance can be achieved with enfle strokes lower down the viol, but at the top, sweetness is all. Naxos has added a valuable CD to the viol repertoire.— Michelene Wandor
