Lovely Vivaldi pieces played with passion, some very recognizable as classics. Some intended for cello, some transcribed from violin. Played on period instruments (with the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra, after all), so plenty of harpsichord throughout. (Roman numerals indicate the movement; there are several multi-movement pieces.) Pieces you’ve heard before: tracks 3, 4, probably 7, possibly 1. I really liked 17, though all are good. 1. (3:22) I. Allegro: wandering and tempestuous 2. (2:31) II. Largo: sad, stately, tremulous 3. (3:11) III. Allegro: very recognizable; unexpected rhythms, dramatic 4. *(1:50) SUPER recognizable--“that fancy party song”; Largo from Four Seasons 5. (3:29) I. Allegro: understated, playful, flirts with minor key 6. (2:19) II. Largo: lots of harpsichord and long chords 7. *(3:36) III. Allegro: also recognizable; lovely, dancing, halting rhythm 8. (2:56) gentle, flowing, w/ oboe n’ bassoon 9. (5:20) I. Allegro: w/ organ n’ lute, heavy tempo with light wanderings over 10. (2:29) II. Largo: quiet and precious 11. (3:10) III. Allegro: minor and stormy 12. (2:54) “look at the pretty wine country!” 13. *(4:15) I. Allegro non molto: warm but apprehensive 14. (2:58) II. Adagio: quiet, bitter and sweet 15. (3:00) III. Allegro ma non molto: decisive, energized 16. (5:02) oboe and organ, soft, “we love everyone!” 17. *(2:28) bouncy, 2 cellos, very pretty and warm. 18. (10:18) quiet, serene, warm, poignant 19. (2:26) soft, mournful; w/ lute -Reviewed by mandy (la chanteuse) | ||
