Emanuela Vozza - Cello Viruosi in France, 1730-1790 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Of the birth and studies of Emanuel Siprutini we know nothing, except that the Italianization of his Hebrew name, Shiprut, would seem to indicate, if anything, the be-longing to an Italian school and style, if only for convenience (Italian cellists were the most appreciated). Around 1750 there are records of his concerts in Holland, where he was also active as a wine merchant, and few years later he settled in London as a concert performer and cello teacher. Leopold Mozart met him in 1764 while visiting England, and struck by his talent tried to convince him to convert to Christianity. Emanuel refused and remained serenely Jewish, cellist and wine trader. He left seven books of sonatas for the cello, which the Mozarts certainly possessed, as is to be believed, finding traces and shreds of ideas in the works of Wolfgang. Album Tracks 1. Six Solos for a Cello with Bass Op. III (London, 1764) 2. Sonata I in D minor 3. Sonata II in F Major 4. Sonata III in G Major 5. Sonata IV in a Minor 6. Sonata V in D Major 7.

Combined with the first volume of this series dedicated to the cello in the eighteenth century; where the 12 sonatas of Lanzetti's Op. I of 1736 are proposed; plus the sonata which was added years later in the English edition of Op. II and III; simple transcriptions for flute of eleven of those of his first published work; this recording of the complete Op. V and VI completes the entire corpus of music that this author had published in print. Between about 1750 and '60; following a serious illness that brought him close to death; he wanted to publish the first of these two works; and the second following a total and happy recovery.
