Violinist Giuliano Carmignloa is joined by Sonatori de la Gioiosa Marca for thierecording of Vivaldi’s Le Quattro Stagioni (The Four Seasons).
Reviewer Norbert Hornig, for Fonoforum calls this album unsurpassed. “…itseems to me so far. Giuliano Carmignolas’ first recording with the Sonatori dela Gioiosa Marca of 1992. A stroke of genius: Grippingly alive instrumentalextremely brilliant, musically transparent and colored to the last corner of thescore.”
Is it still possible after hundreds, perhaps thousands, of live performances andrecordings, to add something new, or at least different, very well known toVivaldi’s Four Seasons? Although it may seem surprising, you can still, writesMusica. And it shows this beautiful engraving of Sonatori of Gioiosa Marca, anextraordinary group of Treviso, which also present a recording devoted almostentirely to Violin Concertos, always by Vivaldi, and assembled in the program”the humane passions” because of their titles: The favorite, anxiety, suspicion,The loving and pleasure.
As is evident, this episode belongs to that style of music, “descriptive,” sodear to some authors of the past, including Vivaldi. In spite of what he saidabout Stravinsky, Vivaldi ie that he would have written the same concertohundreds of times it is the richness and variety of timbres and rhythms foundto distinguish these songs, while in the identical construction scheme and thesame processing structure. The merit of Sonatori Treviso, led by violinistGiuliano Carmignola, lies in their execution by Vivaldi, based on ancientinstruments and techniques of contemporary compositions.
