How much do you appreciate Boccherini's music?


To all classical music lovers,

Because new amplifier and cable purchase so I decided to listen to the music I am not familiar with for this break-in period. I picked up Boccherini's music which had been ignored in my CD draws for years. Yes, I owned them but didn't pay too much attention to his music while I played them.

But these past two weeks I just realized there are so many interest elements in Boccherini's music.

Don't want to limit the direction of this thread, I hope you will kindly share your opinions, feelings and nice recordings regarding Boccherini's music before I post mine.

Happy Listening!

Considering that there were so many people in Boccherini's life that died, it's remarkable that he was able to keep on writing great pieces. I would make the radical assumption that there were various times in history where he was celebrated more than what he is today but that's common with a number of composers. My recommendation in this case is a mono vinyl pressing of;
