Giovanni Stefano Carbonelli (circa 1690-1772) Sonate X, sol mineur; Sonate I, Ré Majeur; Sonate XXI, si mineur; Prélude - Ayres pour guitare (Matteis); Sonate VII, la mineur; Sonate VI, La Majeur

Born in Rome, Carbonelli studied with Corelli before moving to London in the early 1720s. Throughout these sonatas for violin and continuo, the violin expresses itself with warmth and brightness. A cultural fragrance reigns, with a touch of humour that was to thrive during the eighteenth century.
