About

The epitome of Italian music for strings.

The name of Corelli dominates a crucial period in the history of instrumental music. During the years 1681 to 1713 the Preclassical sonata and concerto grosso reached a degree of maturity which bacem a designated model for all composers of his generation. At the same time, his work entirely devoted to bowing and performance became the violin teaching guide for nearly a century at various European schools, and whose first elements are still the basis of today's techniques.

This new recording of all Stravaganza, highlights, under the bow of Domitilla Gilon and Rie Kimura, subtleties in the art of the "prince of violinists" without whom the composers of Baroque Europe could not have give us so many jewels.

Awards and reviews

January 2014

urbane, eloquent, fastidiously considered performances.

December 2013

I was continually made aware what wonderful music I was listening to...within the limits [Corelli] sets himself, and in Stravanganza's performances, what a wealth of artistry, beauty and variety. They bring intense expressiveness to the slower movements...Some of the finest music of the Baroque period, played with real understanding - I warmly recommend it.
