Genre: Classical
Composer: Antonio Vivaldi
Conductor: Sigiswald Kuijken

Label: Accent
Number of Discs: 1
Duration: 59.14 minutes

Kuijken's recording shows a radically new view of the well-known work - and this entirely within the framework of historical performance practice!

Firstly, the instrumentation here is chamber music, so not a single part is doubled, and secondly, instead of a conventional violoncello, a violoncello da spalla, a shoulder cello, is used, which has an effect on the sound.

"La Petite Bande have always boasted a wonderfully alive string timbre." Gramophone Magazine

"La Petite Bande's performance is a pleasure and a treat." Musicweb International
