11+ Hours of Charming Music at a Great Price
I am not a violin fan. I never buy or listen to String Quartets, Serenades for Strings & rarely Violin Concertos. Something about Viotti & this set though caught my attention & so I made the plunge & bought it. Also, never having heard any other performances of these concertos I can't judge the quality of this performance and on a negative note, the Symphonia Perusina sounds a little amaturish at times. All that said, it's Viotti's music that's important here. It's a delight, filled with wonderful, charming melodies & violin virtuoso effects . These are not the huge, crashing, bombastic concertos of the Romantic era, but rather the perfect music to accompany a Fragonard painting.
