Anner Bylsma, Bob van Asperen - J.S. Bach: Sonatas for Viola da Gamba, J.C.F. Bach: Sonata A-Dur (1990) CD-Rip

That said, Anner Bylsma's disc gets a great deal more playing time. The timbre of the piccolo cello is ideally matched with the organ. While purists may balk at such unusual instrumentation, I cannot help but think such an experiment is quite in keeping with the spirit of Baroque era practices. In general, I try not to judge the success of a recording by a preconceived idea of what a musical elite would or would not approve of. If the instrumentation adds new colors and delights to the music, then it is a success.
