? This CD presents the first recording on period instruments of Vivaldi's
complete Opus 5, consisting of 4 violin sonatas for violin solo and
continuo, as well as two Trio Sonatas for two violins and continuo.
? In the years of composition of these works Vivaldi's fame had already
widely spread and he was keen to publish this set of chamber music as his
Opus 5. The music is vintage Vivaldi: fresh, vigorous, full of melodic and
harmonic invention and instrumental brilliance.
? This CD is part of the complete edition based on the original sources of the
New Vivaldi Edition by the Italian early music group L'Arte dell'Arco, led
by violinist Federico Guglielmo, who is the soloist in these sonatas,
seconded by a continuo of cello and harpsichord. "They understand the
secret language of Vivaldi" (Diapason).
