Heinrich Biber, Mystery Sonatas.
Live from Wigmore Hall, London. The 'Rosary' or 'Mystery' Sonatas by the 17th-century Austrian composer Heinrich Biber are one of the most extraordinary collections in the baroque violin repertoire, a cycle of 15 sonatas reflecting on episodes in the life of Jesus and the Virgin Mary. Six of them, plus the solo Passacaglia which ends the cycle, are performed here by violinist Rachel Podger, theorbist David Miller and keyboard-player Marcin Swiatkiewicz.
Biber: Mystery Sonatas:
No 1 'The Annunciation'; No 2 'The Visitation'; No 3 'The Nativity'; No 9 'Jesus Carries the Cross'; No 10 'The Crucifixion'; No 11 'The Resurrection'; Passacaglia
Rachel Podger (violin)

John Field's nocturnes played on an 1823 Broadwood fortepiano by Bart van Oort. They are so relaxing, melodious and delightful.
I have the CD- but for those who haven't heard these:

Now I have my new PC I'm like a kid with a new toy as I can watch Youtube without it crashing all the time! I just love this version of Tristan with Jessye Norman - the change at around 3'48 is breath taking and the whole thing is stunning - best watched full screen.
