1993

Coin has recorded some 50 CDs, both as a soloist and with ensembles. Several of them were awarded prizes. He recorded Purcell's trio sonatas and Haydn's cello concertos with Christopher Hogwood. The Quatuor Mosaïques recorded Luigi Boccherini's quintets with Patrick Cohen playing pianoforte. Beginning in 1993, Coin conducted and played Bach's ten cantatas with violoncello piccolo within three years at the church of Ponitz, Thuringia, using its 1737 Gottfried Silbermann organ. Some cantatas feature the Leipziger Concerto Vocale, some the Chœur de Chambre Accentus, all the Ensemble Baroque de Limoges and soloists Barbara Schlick, Andreas Scholl, Christoph Prégardien and Gotthold Schwarz, including Jesu, nun sei gepreiset, BWV 41 for New Year's Day.
