About

In the 17th century, instrumental virtuosity became a major part of musical life. It was also at the end of the 17th century that the string ensemble won out over all other varieties of musical groups and found a fixed nucleus in modern orchestras. With that step, stricter and more precise instrumental partituras and some genres emerged - solo sonata with basso continuo, sonata a tre, solo concerto, concerto grosso - which gave the foundation of the instrumental music featured here, and which are illustrated by the masterworks of Corelli, Vivaldi, Geminiani and Bonporti, among others.
