About

We still know little about the biographical details of the violinist and composer Antonio Lolli, one of the most extraordinary itinerant virtuosi of the eighteenth century. Active from 1758 at the court of Stuttgart, Lolli became famous through his concert tours in Europe.

Analysed in their entirety, the nine concertos that can certainly be attributed to the violinist-composer from Bergamo do not present any particularly marked stylistic evolution. Although the nine concertos presented here do not attain the virtuoso heights of Lolli’s Sonatas for violin and basso continuo, the violin writing is nevertheless of great technical difficulty.

Founded with the aim of promoting Italian 18th-century music, the chamber group Reale Concerto has appeared in many Italian and European cities, always reaping great success.
All cadenzas are written by soloist and director Luca Fanfoni.

Recorded at “A. Boito” Conservatory and at the Church of San Silvestro in Parma, Italy, April-July 2007.


All these concertos are here presented in their world première recording.
