description
This 3-CD set contains Vivaldi’s (1678-1741) complete Sonatas for two violins and basso continuo, taken from the Trio Sonatas Op.1 and Op.5. The early sonatas Op.1 were clearly influenced by Corelli, both in form and style; the 4 or 5 movements consist of dance forms, preceded by a Preludio, and the style is brilliant and virtuoso in the fast movements, while the slow movements reveal how the human voice acted as a model, paving the way for his future ventures into opera.

Played on period instruments by L’Archicembalo, a young and exciting Early Music group from Italy. The two violins are accompanied by cello, violone and harpsichord.

L’Archicembalo’s previous recording for Brilliant Classics, the string Symphonies by Vivaldi, received excellent reviews: “...a broad description of their sound would be that it’s as energetic, exuberant and rhythmic as you’d expect from Vivaldi performances...” (Gramophone), “...As soon as I heard them I was electrified. A new interpretation that is lively and harmonious, a blessing and an absolute stimulus for my ears”. (Bettina Winkler, SWR).
