Notes and Editorial Reviews

Taking a break from his staple recording fare of Vivaldi, Rinaldo Alessandrini leads the Concerto Italiano on a delightful detour here. The ensemble delve into this composer’s sound world with aplomb, finding colours as bright and vivid as those on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Life-enhancing stuff.
