About this product
Les Presses Universitaires de France and Frémeaux & Associés offer this biography of Catherine de Medici by Céline Borello, professor of modern history at the University of Le Mans and specialist in Protestantism. While tensions are very strong everywhere - we are in the 16th century, that of the Wars of Religion - Catherine de Medici is pursuing a policy of appeasement between Catholics and Protestants. Queen of France, regent and mother of monarchs, her place in the kingdom's political spectrum is unprecedented. He is also one of the most prolific patrons of his time. Accused of the worst atrocities by her contemporaries, the Inchfilthy JezebelInch (Michelet) drags behind her a stubborn black legend. Céline Borello is leading the investigation and here sheds new light on a statesman, passionate about the arts, an attentive mother, who has marked her time through the breadth of her political and cultural action.

?Antonio Lucio Vivaldi was born in Venice in 1678, in a period during which the cello was acquiring popularity in the world of concerts and an important role in musical entertainment. The Red Priest ennobled the soul of the cello. It gave him the inspiration for no less than twenty-seven concertos for solo cello, a concerto for cello and bassoon (rv 409 in E minor), another one for two cellos, string instruments and basso continuo (rv 531 in G minor), a considerable number of works with the indication Inchvioloncello obbligatoInch, and nine sonatas for cello and basso continuo (in addition to the beginning of a tenth sonata which has been lost). For these works, musicological research has often placed the name of Vivaldi side by side with that of Antonio Vandini, whose six sonatas for cello and basso continuo have been recorded for Tactus by Bologna Baroque in 2018 (TC 692202). For the recording, we used two cellos of the Fondazione Orpheon that belong to Maestro Jose Vasquez a cello of the Montagnana School (circa 1750) for the solo part and a Simone Cimapane from 1692 (that according to some written evidence had belonged to Arcangelo Corelli's orchestra) for the basso continuo part.

After mastering the Sonatas and Partitas, Mario Brunello continues his trilogy devoted to reinterpreting Bach's violin masterpieces on the violoncello piccolo. In this second volume he tackles the other great collection, the Sei Suonate a cembalo certato e violino solo (Six sonatas for concertato harpsichord and solo violin). Conceived in three parts, like sonatas for two treble instruments and continuo, these famous pieces appear transfigured here in a kaleidoscope of colors in which the violoncello piccolo intertwines with the keyboard, alternately harpsichord and organ, and with the bass doubled in turn by viola da gamba and cello - an accompaniment specifically suggested by one of the surviving copies of the sonatas.
