Hit: 5 Stars
Marco Uccellini (1603-1680) is much less known and popular than other composers of Baroque era. Records of Baroque music itself differs - the success of it depends on performer: you could get either a kind of hard-rock style classical music or romantic poetical opuses which would express delicatest feelings and emotions.
Trio ROMANESCA "always produce revitalizing, edge-of-your-chair music". With the sounds of violin, harpischord, organ, theorbo, Baroque guitar ROMANESCA created live, luminious, emotional, relaxing sound world. It is a pleasure to return there.
There is St.Petersburg Baroque Trio by V.Shulyakovsky. I heard their CD "Italian Violin Music of the 17th Century" with the music by Uccellini and I was sure that they are the best performers of his music.
Now I`m not so sure...
So if you like light sentimental romantic Baroque music for relaxation - this CD by ROMANESCA is your choice!
And don`t pay much attention to guy above me who recommends you to buy CD by his favourite performer and avoid ROMANESCA.
His likes or dislikes - are his own problems. Make your own choice!!! We are simple listeners and when we are listening to CD - the music is interesting for us, not discussions of musicologists...
By the way, why not to buy both CDs and compare the quality of playing?
Uccellini - Sonatas / Romanesca - Manze ? North ? Toll Poster
One thing is for certain, every recording by baroque ensemble Romanesca is a revelation. The trio--led by violinist Andrew Manze, keyboardist John Toll, and lute player Nigel North--breathe new life into 17th- and 18th-century chamber music like no other group playing today. This recording focuses on 17th-century Italian composer Marco Uccellini's numerous violin sonatas. Though his work is shrouded in mystery (manuscripts have been lost, directions are cloudy), Uccellini's legacy pours forth from what little has remained: he wrote some truly cutting-edge violin works filled with revolutionary changes of key and styles. Manze's playing shines on this disc; he executes Uccellini's odd phrases perfectly, without ever sounding too calculated. Opus IV, No. 2 shifts abruptly between slow solo passages and lively tapestries of trio playing. Opus IX, No. 1 is a virtual dialogue between instruments. Romanesca's take on Biber is a classic: spirited, well-played, and almost jazzy; this recording is less fun, but no less enlightening. Before Biber, Uccellini was at the vanguard of baroque composing. Thanks to Romanesca, it's easy to see why. --Jason VerlindeClassical Music CDs
