Description
'The Golden Age of the Cello in Britain' features works by Emanuel Siprutini, Stephen Paxton, Walter Clagget, James Hook, Hugh Reinagle, Rovert Lindley and others.
"In the 18th century, London was a centre of extraordinary vivacity for European music, an ideal place for virtuosos of any nation in search of fame. That's what we knew very well when we decided to dedicate one of our recordings to the fortune of cello in Great Britain. Yet we had never suspected that we were going to face such an enormous quantity of compositions for our instrument of such a high and constant quality. Hundreds of chamber sonatas and duets for two cellos, from the easiest ones to the most demanding and virtuosic, not a single page left us indifferent: each one brought with it something that captured our interest and ignited our imagination, each one managed to arouse an enchantment, to transport us lightly or in gravity from vertigo to vertigo, and leave us inebriated with ancient scents and distant memories, as if drunk by a generous, intense red wine, tapped from fine barrels where it had matured to perfection."
