It’s fabulous that somebody thought to give the theorbo it’s own microphone!! Hurrah!! Now I can actually hear it, without feeling sorry for the musician for going to all the trouble to master such a difficult instrument, only for it never to be heard in orchestral settings!! And, this piece is full of ornaments that make Baroque music so satisfying to play, sing, and listen to, especially in the slow movements, with two of my favorites being the 4-3 suspension and the appoggiatura. This orchestra plays so beautifully, too!

(How seldom do the recordists get the credit they deserve.) Thank you so much for promoting it here. One tiny quibble -- for those of us who appreciate it, the bitrate makes a huge difference. Next time, maybe a real hifi bitrate for a performance so enthralling?

@mario47985 жыл бұрын
@UCvI53xnSAYkQfGyS_OCucHg Grazie della risposta, ma io intendevo l'arrangiamento della tiorba, di solito gli spartiti dell'epoca riportavano un semplice ad libitum, perché ogni ensemble che avrebbe suonato lo spartito poteva o no disporre o prevedere una tiorba e quindi il basso continuo si adeguava alle disponibilità strumentali dell'orchestra. Fino a qualche anno fa il b. c. era realizzato solo col clavicembalo, vedi l'incisione de I Musici.

@elaineblackhurst15094 жыл бұрын
Jacobo Gutt Both the twelve Opus 5 violin sonatas and Opus 6 concerti grossi changed the musical landscape completely; at a stroke, they made all previous music sound dated and old-fashioned. Corelli influenced all string concerto grosso writing for the rest of the Baroque period, most notably Handel’s Opus 6 which are clearly modelled on the Corelli and are really the only set of a comparable standard; Geminiani and Locatelli are two others worth checking out. The 12 violin sonatas and 12 concerti grossi are quite simply, absolute, unqualified masterpieces. PS: there is one concerto grosso (s), but many concerti grossi (pl).

Lovely performance, and terrific recording and visuals. The close ups of the bowing are particularly good, especially the double bass. The ending of the Adagio-Allegro-Adagio movement (5:35-7:34 as mentioned in earlier posts) is exquisite, and the portion beginning at 6:55 is like a feather drifting slowly down through the air, and me hoping it never reaches the ground.
