Hi everyone,

Some years ago, on the radio, I heard the most exquisite recording of Heinz Holliger playing "La Folia" variations by Marin Marais. He was accompanied by Christiane Jaccottet (harpsichord) and I think there was a double bass or a cello continuo, too.

Anyway, for years, I've been haunted by this recording, and I've searched and searched - with no success whatsoever.

Does anyone know of this recording (CD or vinyl) and where I could get hold of a copy?

Please help, it's slowly driving me mad...

Thanks in advance,

Angharad.

Please???

Try forrestmusic.com or Amazon. Ebay works too. Did you try i-Tunes? Or e-music?
