Search - BOJAN CICIC; THE ILLYRIA CONSORT :: Sonate Da Camera 7-12

With their debut recording on Delphian, Bojan Cicic and his Illyria Consort propelled the name of Carbonelli from obscurity into the classical charts, recapturing the excitement which the violinist-composer stirred up in eighteenth-century London. Now they bring to Carbonelli s other six surviving sonatas the same intelligence, sensitivity and sheer, exhilarating virtuosic brilliance with which they proved him to be so much more than just a follower of Corelli or contemporary of Vivaldi. For good measure they add in a fine concerto by the latter that bears Carbonelli s name, and which amply demonstrates the respect in which he was held in his native Italy before setting off to find his fame and fortune in England.
