Vivaldi: Concertos and Sinfonias for Strings and Basso

Vivaldi’s Concertos and Sinfonias for Strings are not concertos for one soloist against the orchestra, but rather a combat field in which orchestral groups set themselves off against other groups, in dialogue or contrast, in unison or in imitation, in short they are concertos for multiple soloists. The 40 concertos and sinfonias belong to the most popular works by the Venetian Master. L’Archicembalo (founded in 2000) is one of the most exciting Early Music groups of Italy, specializing in the research and performance of orchestral treasures of the Italian Baroque. Their performances dazzle with a new kind of Vivaldian “Cantabilità” and clarity of sound, receiving the highest praise in the international press: “Electrifying…you must hear it” (SWR Radio Germany), “Such a beautiful recording” (Radio Classica).
