El conde único Wilhelm van Wassenaer (1692-1766) era un noble y embajador holandés de los Estados Unidos en París y en Colonia en la década de 1740. También era un músico y compositor aficionado sorprendentemente hábil. Al igual que muchos hombres ricos de la época que tenían habilidades musicales similares, Albinoni y Marcello, por ejemplo, publicaron su música bajo un nombre falso, ya que el estatus social de los músicos y compositores estaba muy por debajo de la suya. Durante muchos años, los Concerti Armonici de este CD eran de un compositor desconocido, y luego se les atribuyeron a Handel, Pergolesi, Carlo Ricciotti (1681-1756) y el violinista Charles Bachiche. Solo en 1979 fue posible atribuir con certeza estos conciertos a Wassenaer. Su música muestra que estaba a la última en cuanto a los estilos musicales de moda de la época y, tal vez como resultado de sus viajes como diplomático, tienen un sonido claramente italiano. Corelli es especialmente detectable, con una predilección por la sensualidad, la lirismo y los contrastes.
