Pietro Antonio Locatelli: Sei Introduttioni Teatra
) | Label: AUDITE Catalog: ADT97821 Format: COMPACT DISC Thüringer Bach Collegium; AnonymousIngenuity and variety characterise Locatelli's concertos. His Introduttioni teatrali are a veritable firework of musical ideas, contrasts and effects; his Concerti grossi showcase the virtuosity of the soloists. This recording realises the concerti in a small ensemble. This was Locatelli's intention, who played with local ensembles on his travels: an interplay of highly virtuosic, demanding solo passages and simpler tutti passages. The Thuringian Bach Collegium follows on stylistically from the highly acclaimed release of the concertos of Prince Johann Ernst of Saxe-Weimar and continues the series of recordings on audite.
