The 12 violin concertos which Antonio Vivaldi published as "La Stravaganza" do full justice to their title: the range of expression is enormous, from the tender lyricism of the slow movements to the wild and tempestuous fast movements, where the solo violin revels in wild leaps and brilliant virtuosity.
Exceptionally vivid and energetic performances by maestro Federico Guglielmo and his L'Arte dell'Arco, playing original instruments in Historically Informed Performance Practice, never a dull moment here!
Booklet contains extensive liner notes and information on the instruments used.
Recorded in 2014 in Padua, Italy.
