"Francesco Antonio Bonporti is one of those Italian baroque composers whose name seldom appears in concert programmes and whose music is available on disc in only a few recordings. He has come to some fame when it was discovered that a couple of Invenzioni for violin and basso continuo, which were included in the catalogue of Johann Sebastian Bach's oeuvre, were in fact from his pen. These Invenzioni - from Bonporti's Op. 10 - may have inspired Bach to call a series of harpsichord pieces Inventionen... If you haven't heard anything of Bonporti, this budget disc is an excellent opportunity to get to know him. The players of Labirinti Armonici are skilled and enthusiastic advocates of his oeuvre. I look forward to future recordings." MusicWeb
