![Devillers The 1750 Project - Serenissima - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/1311706a-0435-417a-8dfa-ad35029bb5d5.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
The 1750 Project proposes a journey from 1720 to 1750, each stage of which will allow us to discover the richness and specificity of a city's musical life at a key juncture in it's history. For the first episode in the 1750 Project, we stop off in Venice around 1726, at a pivotal moment in the history of music when the meeting of two styles led to an aesthetic turning point. The city, then dominated by Antonio Vivaldi, also welcomed several other leading Italian composers, including the Neapolitan Nicola Porpora and the Milanese Giuseppe Sammartini, who was about to revolutionize the world of wind instruments. The city on the lagoon was a cultural hub and a mandatory destination in the itinerary of many nobles and musicians from northern Europe who wished to round off their training and culture. Several German composers, including Pisendel, Quantz, Hasse and Handel, passed through Venice in the early eighteenth century before returning to their native regions to spread the gospel of Italian music. Let us therefore, for a short while, put ourselves in the shoes of an imaginary traveller discovering the musical life of Venice around 1726. Album Tracks 1.

![Piatti / Wrobel - Tutti I Capricci - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/07aa9002-f685-4029-b80d-280805bc8a40.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Caprice, being a virtuoso form, mainly for a solo instrument, dates back to the 19th century. In these times, instrumentalists were frequently also composers - they would create pieces adapted to their abilities and the caprice was the most virtuosic genre among them. It is also the main topic of this album. The caprices by Alfredo Piatti, recognized by Yehudi Menuhin as the cello's New Testament, are fraught with difficulties, but there are plenty of beautiful and varied melodies and counterpoints using almost all possibilities of the cello. To Anna Wróbel, Piatti is more than virtuosity of the caprices, it is also captivating chamber music of varied atmosphere, interpreted and arranged (Andrzej Wróbel), in a family ensemble, for two and three cellos. Anna Wróbel is a soloist, chamber musician, and teacher. She graduated in 2005 with honors from the Academy of Music Fr. Chopin in Warsaw in the class of professor Andrzej Wróbel. In 2012 she received her Doctor of Musical Arts from the same school. Album Tracks 1. Capriccio No. 1 Allegro Quasi Presto 2. Capriccio No. 2 Andante Religioso 3. Capriccio No. 3 Moderato 4.
