Antonio Vivaldi (1678 - 1741)

Complete Sonatas for Cello and Basso Continuo



Performers:
Jaap Ter Linden - cello
Lars Ulrik Mortensen - harpsichord
Judith- Maria Becker - cello


A major new release by one of the leading cellists in the field of "Early Music", Jaap ter Linden, seconded by a no lesser celebrity in this scene, Lars Ulrik Mortensen.
The players shed new light on the Cello Sonatas of Antonio Vivaldi, earliest examples and masterpieces of their sort. Jaap ter Linden’s recent recording of Bach’s Cello Suites (93132) was warmly welcomed by both press and public, and his continued survey of the Baroque Repertoire on Brilliant Classics proves his deepened experience and ripened insight into these familiar works.
