The Italian period-instrument ensemble Il Giardino Armonico has garnered praise and ... more

astonishment in roughly equal measure with its
energetic and expressive approach to Baroque
music. Rejecting the scholarly, somewhat
reverential style of authentic performance
practice familiar in Britain the players perform
with an almost devil-may-care freedom (which,
however, is carefully cultivated) that gives
modern listeners at least some idea of how excited
audiences were by this music when the ink was
still wet on the page. Notably, the frenetic
continuo accompaniment adds a refreshing and
inventive variety to even the most hackneyed
Baroque standards. Here, the ensemble performs a
selection of sunny and generally well-known
Vivaldi works that spotlight mandolin and/or lute,
inventively accompanied as ever by other plucked
instruments. The featured concertos are: RV558 in
C, one of a series for multiple instruments; RV540
in D minor, the popular double concerto for viola
d'amore and lute; RV425 in C, the even more
popular work for solo mandolin; RV93 in D, for two
violins and lute; and best of all, RV532 in G, the
superb two-mandolin concerto. These are
supplemented by two oft-recorded trio sonatas for
lute. In the hands of this effervescent band,
however, all the pieces sound new-minted.  --Mark
Walker

Advantages: Fresh and enthusiastic rendition of a great classic
Disadvantages: May have to be ordered

Concerti per liuto e mandolino is one of Antonio Vivaldi’s lesser played works, this may be because of the complexity orchestras try to build into it, and had been considered unplayable by many for a time. I had been unable to get hold of the version I wanted for quite some time and eventually it was bought as a gift for me :o)

Unlike the Four Seasons this is not the stuff that muzac is made from although, as with much of Vivaldi’s ...
...funnily enough someone thought I was playing the theme music from ‘Only when I laugh’ and I have to admit, that in parts, it sounds like a direct lift.

The music is from Das Alte Werk library and is played on period instruments using the techniques of the day, this is probably why this recording is so good to listen to. The insert in the CD tells us that although ‘playing on original instruments is nothing out of ... more
