I Solisti Ambrsiani Pedersoli Belosio - Concertos & Soprano Arias - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Gustav Mahler described his Third Symphony as 'a work in which the whole world is indeed reflected', a claim supported by it's large, six-movement structure and the use of huge orchestral and choral forces, plus a part for alto solo. The first performance of the symphony took place on 9 June 1902 in Krefeld under Mahler's direction. This is the third recording of a Mahler symphony by the Essen Philharmonic Orchestra under conductor Tomáš Netopil. They are joined here by Bettina Ranch (alto), the Aalto Children's Choir, the ladies of the Essen Philharmonic Choir and the children's choir of the Deutsche Oper Berlin.

The present is an album which aims to provide a recording of material which has been unreleased so far and which completes the corpus of the composer, Bartolomeo Bernardi. I Solisti Ambrosiani Baroque Ensemble was founded in 2008 by soprano Tullia Pedersoli and violinist Davide Belosio. The mission of the Ensemble is the study and interpretation of ancient music, performed on original or reconstructed instruments. I Solisti Ambrosiani are often guests of national and international festivals. They have gained the approval of the public and critics for the quality and refinement of their performances. In 2012 they created the Musica Sibrii Festival of which they supervised the artistic direction, organizing concerts of ancient music in the artistically most significant places of the Seprio. Every year the event also hosts external artists, thus becoming an opportunity for cultural exchange and growth.
