About this product
The Inchsympathetic madnessInch was exactly that spark that continued to distinguish the instrumental production of the InchNeapolitansInch and which also transpires from the literature by Barbella dedicated to almandol, an instrument very dear to aristocratic circles as can now be deduced, in a self-evident way, from recent studies on this tool always betrayed by a history that relegated it exclusively to a InchstreetInch or just InchpopularInch practice. The Six Duos were composed for 2 violins or 2 mandolins, as was customary in the practice of the time, which saw the same compositions performed on different instruments. Barbella also composed music for mandolin alone. Although his writing is less idiomatic than that, for example, of his fellow countryman Giovanni Battista Gervasio (c. 1725 - c. 1785, himself a mandolinist), Barbella manages to combine a refined compositional style, which he learned in the Neapolitan conservatories, with techniques and the pizzicato sound of the new mandolin, creating a new way of writing, with harmonies and sounds that had probably never been heard before. The listener can still perceive this new sound today in the performance offered to us on this CD, where the choice of the musicians was to perform the Duos not with two violins or two mandolins, but with a violin and a mandolin. A sound that we can legitimately imagine to be not so far from that heard by the listeners and performers of the time, given the great diffusion that the instrument had throughout Europe, as the iconography of the time illustrates.

![Various Artists - Folia - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/f44aa7a3-7f77-449e-a3c0-c09d6e5ba4cf.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
The InchFoliaInch was a popular dance born in the Iberian Peninsula in the 15th century. The meaning of InchfoliaInch being InchmadnessInch, it is documented that in it's early days it was a fast, ecstatic dance. Both a harmonic structure and a melody (developed a bit later), the InchFoliaInch evolved until in the Baroque it was formalized into a standard chord progression and melodic line, often developed in the form of variations. In this 2-album set, we present many versions of the InchFoliaInch recorded over the years by artists belonging to the Note 1 group of labels Paolo Pandolfo, Jose Miguel Moreno, Lina Tur Bonet, Enrico Gatti, Leila Schayegh or Sigiswald Kuijken all make their appearance in music from the Renaissance and Baroque. Among the represented composers we can find Marin Marais, Arcangelo Corelli, Gaspar Sanz or Antonio Vivaldi. Have a lot of fun with these 140 minutes of madness!

![Pasche I Pizzicanto - Alma Intrepida - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/ac819a09-bb7f-4147-80eb-5f62b8f38334.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Full of adventure, I Pizzicanti set about making this album a reality. They came up with the idea for the project together with Céline Pasche, with whom the musicians share a love of the Italiano style. After lots of searching and playing the original repertoire with recorder, they were able to capture the spirit of this Italian style with the artistic means of historical transcription. As members of the new generation of upcoming artists, the musicians Nadja & Chani Lesaulnier, Rafael Becerra and Jonathan Pesek founded the group I Pizzicanti in the year 2009. I Pizzicanti, with all it's members being graduates of the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, is perpetuating the movement of rediscovery of the 17th, 18th and 19th century repertoire by using the techniques of the historically informed performance practice. The common ground of shared aesthetic principles allows I Pizzicanti to pursue a research for liberty, creativity and spontaneity while paying due respect to the integrity of the historical masterpieces. In a productive dialogue process the dynamics of the group evolve around the distinct personalities of it's members. I Pizzicanti is devoted to the recreation and promotion of baroque musical practice like the proficient playing of several instruments and the art of transcription.
