About this product

This is a journey through the history of the solo viola da gamba, starting with it's birth (1553) and finishing at the end of 17th Century. Besides the pieces by Diego Ortiz and Tobias Hume, there are some world premiere recordings of music by Benjamin Hely and Angelo Bertalotti. Matteo Cicchitti is the leader of Musica Elegentia, already responsible for a previous Wagenseil disc on Challenge Classics (CC 72896). Pieces were selected in the light of their austere and meditative mood. They perfectly match the character of the remote 12th Century Abruzzian church that hosted the musician and the strictness of the 'live' recording process that required only lightest editing.

Albeniz / Cicchillitti - Canciones   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

A superb Canadian guitarist - Classical Guitar Magazine, 2017 Few national musical styles are as related to an instrument as Spain is to the guitar. It is an instrument that expresses wonderfully the colors and spirit of this beautiful country. We find this musical expression on Canciones, the excellent new album guitarist Adam Cicchillitti, whose program consists of works of the great Spanish composers of the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, such as Isaac Albeniz, Manuel de Falla, Joaquin Rodrigo and Joaquin Turina. Canciones is a sublime musical representation of the regions and contrasts of Spain, it's sources of inspiration and it's many influences. And to evoke Spain and it's InchsoulInch, the guitar is the instrument of choice. Adam Cicchillitti is an exciting young talent emerging on the classical guitar scene in Canada. Originally from Montreal, Adam's recent competition successes have placed him on concert stages across Canada and the United States.
