Not sure why his work is “largely forgotten”. It’s very beautiful. I wish music critics would let the public decide what we like and stop over-curating! 🎶 🎼
If you would read the comments here, you would readily recognize which kind of musics the public frequenting here does definitely like... Otherwise, you are joining the 'over-curating' you possibly hate...
I adore this superb, lush, delicate, civilized beauty. I liked this first piece for many years, but never knew who it was, it played in a place I worked many years ago. I've always tried to find it or learn who it was. Thank you!! I never knew of Geminiani before this moment. This is my favorite kind of chamber music to listen to in my own time. So happy!

To think that I once considered myself somewhat knowledgeable about classical music - here, BC has humbled me once again (to more unexpected delight). I was unaware of Geminiani's cello sonatas, thinking of him as violinist who had made some minor works also for guitar ("my" instrument). Again, new learning, new enjoyment of "new" works, played superbly. Thanks to all.
