About

As a genre, concerto grosso is virtually unique in its ability to capture the verve and elegance of the age of the Baroque. Its outstanding exponent was Arcangelo Corelli, whose principal concerti grossi are brought together in this DVD, recorded in the spectacularly beautiful Basilica di San Marco in Rome.

Played by I Solisti Veneti under their founder and director Claudio Scimone, this is an unforgettable musical experience thanks to the performers’ pre-eminence in this repertory.

The ensemble I Solisti Veneti has won numerous awards, including a Grammy Award and a Grand Prix du Disque de l'Academie Charles Cros.

"I tried to rediscover the life in [the 18th-century Venetian works], to demolish the wall of boredom and reconstruct the personality of the composers who worked during an era that was not in the least superficial, but rich in dramatic contrast and severe repression." - Claudio Scimone

Recorded at the Basilica di San Marco, Rome, 5 October 1986.
