description
The works on this CD were recently found in a manuscript in the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome, containing 230 pages of music notated in guitar tablature. Several of these works bear the name of Domenico Rainer (or Raineri), a composer of whom literally nothing is known. • The works of Rainer are dances which are usually arranged in certain groups, later known as suites or orders, consisting of Allemanda, Corrente, Gavotta, Sarabanda, Gigue, Capriccio or Minuet. The groups are of various length, from 2 to 7 pieces per group. • The style is in the tradition of the 17th century Italian-French mixed battuto-pizzicato style as used by virtuosi like Bartolotti, Corbetta and De Visée. Rainer was also influenced by Corelli in his distinctly “violinistic” approach, with broken-chord figuration and a modern sense of tonality and chord hierarchy. • Dutch guitarist Lex Eisenhardt is a specialist in Early Music and he made several recordings with period instruments. He has given solo recitals and lectures all over the world. He wrote the excellent liner notes for this CD himself.
