Description:

A Paradigm Shift from Voice to Instrument: New Music with a Fervor This album introduces the art of instrumental music that flourished in 17th century Italy, with the violin and recorder playing the leading roles. It is a collection of dynamic, experimental, and "unusual" works that were considered almost radical at the time, and features performances that are as intense as the sparks that fly. The album is a vivid example of the fervor characteristic of the Baroque period, when instrumental music emerged as a new paradigm, replacing the vocal art that had been greatly developed and perfected during the Renaissance, and where various explorations, inventions, and researches were conducted. The title of the album, "Basta parlare! (Stop talking, that's enough!) is also a statement of determination to master instrumental music as a new form of expression in lieu of the voice.
