Among the Italian composers who led the way in Europe, Corelli and Veracini were both outstanding violinists who left behind finely polished works for the instrument. Sho Maruyama, a Baroque violinist of the new generation, turns here to the wilder, more extravagant sonatas of these two composers, and with playing of delicacy and vitality he brings the fervour of the age back to life.\n\n- Ensemble LMC\n\u003csho maruyama\u003e\nBorn in Yokohama.
