Rushton,
My first reaction to "Il Cornetto" is how delicate and airy the lute/guitar passages are as they weave through the soundscape. A lot of people may pass this recording by fearing the "acquired taste" of harpsichord, but the combination of the lute, cornett, chamber organ/harpsichord are just right IMO. Very easy on the ears, nice late night listening at lower volumes, and a tremendous recording from a production standpoint. Thanks for bringing this one to my attention!
