Info zu Veracini: Sonate da camera, Op. 2

Antonio Veracini lebte zur Blütezeit der Renaissance in Florenz. Sein kompositorisches Talent wurde von der Medici-Familie gefördert. Seine zehn Sonaten »Accademiche« für Solovioline und B. c. entstanden 1694 und sind, anders als der Name suggeriert, alles andere als rein didaktische Lehrstücke. Tatsächlich erfordern sie ausgezeichnete technische Fähigkeiten des Solisten und sind ein Musterbeispiel für Veracinis abwechslungsreichen und progressiven Stil.

Der Geiger Fabrizio Longo und sein Ensemble Opera Qvinta – Domenico Cerasani, Theorbe und spanische Gitarre, Marc Vanscheeuwijck, Violone und Anna Clemente, Cembalo – haben Veracinis Violinsonaten erstmalig vollständig eingespielt.
