"Instrumentation in much Baroque music is specially conceived to work on human emotions through the magic use of sound and texture."
Julien Martin
From the suave and seductive melodies of the Renaissance madrigal to the virtuoso solo and concerto repertoire of the Baroque, the young French recorder player Julien Martin is gaining an outstanding reputation for his charismatic and persuasive performances on the premiere “original” instrument in the revival of the repertoire ranging from the Middle Ages to the high Baroque.
