5.0 out of 5 stars Biondi at his best, 28 Feb 2007
By Sid Nuncius "Sid Nuncius" (London England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This is a brilliant disc. I'd previously thought Boccherini to be a sort of charming but slightly wallpaperish composer of amiable, rather forgettable music. Not any more.

I listened to this disc on the basis that Biondi is occasionally bonkers (try his Mozart Violin Concerti!) but never, ever dull and often quite brilliant. Here, he and Europa Galante are brilliant. From the moment they get stuck into the opening Allegro non molto there is verve, delight and occasionally real pathos in their playing, and the standard of musicianship is amazing. This disc was a complete revelation to me, and now I can see the point of Boccherini. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone. I bet you'll just love it - I do.

5.0 out of 5 stars takes the clockwork out of Boccherini, 14 Jun 2001
By A Customer
this is the most inspired yet by Europa Galante, absolutely vivid, with a beautiful Spanish feel and none of the boring baroque quaintness you sometimes get when people rediscover this composer

the recording is very sharp and beautifully lyrical with original intepretation in my view better than what Kenedy does with the Four Seasons

these people know their stuff and they have the daring to strutt it
