Description:

Corelli on viola da gamba. A great performance by two up-and-coming musicians of the European ancient music scene! 25 years older than Vivaldi, Corelli is a master of the Italian Baroque who marked a major step in the history of violin music. Since its publication in Rome in 1700, his masterpiece Sonata for Violin and Passing Bass, Op. 5, has been highly acclaimed in many countries, and many musicians have tried to play it on instruments other than violin. In light of this historical background, two new talents in the world of Italian classical music will bring to light the hidden charm of Corelli's works on viola da gamba and harpsichord. Teodoro Bau was born in 1992 and studied under Vittorio Ghielmi, the "Heifetz of Gamba," and master Roberto Gini. Andrea Buccarella, who has already released a solo album (RIC407) on RICERCAR, is also of the new generation, born in 1987.Bau's bowing is very dependable, and he spins exquisite lines of notes to weave a free and easy duet space. The ensemble with Buccarella's harpsichord is also exquisite. The original work's flavor can be enjoyed freshly with the mid-bass of the gamba, while appropriate transpositions are used in some pieces so that the music can be played without killing the music.
