  • Description

    Paolo Morena, Fabio Ravasi, Cynthia Liao, Gabriele Zanetti present the complete works for string quartet by Puccini.

    The five-part writing for strings had its period of greatest development in the 16th and 17th centuries, only to fall into a progressive obsolescence. The most commonly used instrumental ensemble included two violins, alto and tenor viola da braccio, cello and basso continuo. Of this quintet, the instrument that undergoes a progressive dismissal is the viola tenore, which in this recording we propose in its original late seventeenth century mounting.
