4.0 out of 5 stars Subtle, bouncing ..., 23 Jan 2003
By Michael Bo - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This Venetian ensemble, and its star violinist, is one of the purest joy of musical Europe these years. The CD they released in 2001 of hitherto unfamiliar late violin concertos by Vivaldi actually didn't leave my CD player for months, and I still often find the time, and any excuse, to sample the delights of these astoundingly well-composed concertos and the brilliant execution.

This follow-up, with six other late Vivaldi concertos, are played with the same subtle dynamics and bouncing energy, and Carmignola's handling of his Baroque violin works like a drug. The concertos themselves though are hardly of the same tall order as the first ones. Compared to the earlier disc this one inevitably seems a little less awe-inspiring, but is still very much worth your trouble.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mesmerising, 18 Feb 2008
By Jon Chambers (Birmingham, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
'Late' Vivaldi concerti are characterised by their greater expansiveness and quirkiness. They are less formulaic and less reliant upon parallel phrasing. Sony issued three CDs of late concerti featuring Carmignola and the Venice Baroque - this being the third and last. Initially, I might have agreed with the reviewer below that these concerti aren't consistently in the same category as those of the previous volume. On better acquaintance, however, these seem just as revelatory, and there are several reasons to cherish this CD along with the others.

Firstly, some of the concerti are among the very best of Vivaldi's entire output. The Concerto in d (RV235), for instance, is a highly dramatic and inspired composition. (Listen to Amazon's sample at the very least!) Likewise the second of the concerti in b (RV389), a poignant, haunting and lyrical work. The slow movement of the Eb concerto (RV258), meanwhile, features some unlikely harmonies for the C18.

Secondly, these concerti are receiving their world premiere recordings here - an astonishing fact, given their quality. For me, several of these works are much more rewarding than many of those in Vivaldi's published sets. (It would be a great mistake to think that Vivaldi thought less of them himself on these grounds - for the last decade or so of his life, he merely found it more profitable to sell concerti privately, in manuscript form. Hence their relative obscurity.)

Finally, the sound created by soloist and ensemble is utterly mesmerising. Original instrumentation and Historically Informed Performance credentials aside, you have to wonder if any performance would actually have sounded quite as good as this in Vivaldi's day. Quite possibly not. Whether it's the sound engineers adding a little extra dynamic width or whether it is the combination and balance of instruments alone, I don't know. But the final effect here is compelling.
