This album features the second half of Brescianello’s Opus 1; works 1 - 6 were released as ‘Behind Closed Doors’ in 2022. La Serenissima passionately believe that Brescianello is a composer who deserves greater recognition with the result that many of his works have been included in releases dating from 2019, our first release on Signum. Solo concertos for violin alternate with Sinphonias for strings and continuo; both forms illustrate Brescianello’s talent for fusing virtuosity with the sweetest of melodies. Also included on the album is an orchestral suite in A major that finishes with a rousing Giga.

Praise for ‘Brescianello Vol. 1: Behind Closed Doors’: “The performances by this accomplished ensemble are polished and invigorating. Chandler’s solo violin playing is articulate, warm toned and communicative, and he is supported throughout by his disciplined and responsive players, among whom the continuo group excels… In summary, a rewarding issue.” - BBC Music Magazine
