About this product

In the last years of his life, the composer, violinist and swordsman Giuseppe Tartini (1692-1770) laboured at a vast cycle of sonatas for solo violin. The resulting manuscript offers the most important composition for solo violin after Bach and, at six hours in duration, the largest integrated work for the instrument. This first complete recording is based on a fresh study of the source and includes a number of works deciphered from Tartini's shorthand and overlooked in earlier editions. These 'Little Sonatas' tread a delicate line between Baroque formality and proto-Romantic passion, occasionally illuminated with an echo of the folk-fiddling of his Slovenian homeland.

Enrico Pieranunzi - Autour de Martinu Live at the Bird   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Enrico Pieranunzi recorded live and in a superb setting. Here he performs the music of Autour de Martinu. While enjoying this recording, it quickly becomes clear why Enrico Pieranunzi is regarded as one of Italy's greatest living artists. A superior post-bop pianist influenced by Bill Evans and McCoy Tyner but long possessing his own sound, Enrico Pieranunzi is one of the top jazz pianists living in Italy. Pieranunzi became a professional when he was 19, playing with trombonist Marcello Rosa's quartet. Since then, in addition to leading his own groups, Pieranunzi has worked with many top players (both Europeans and Americans) including Franco Ambrosetti, Chet Baker, Benny Bailey, Art Farmer, Curtis Fuller, Johnny Griffin, Charlie Haden, Jim Hall, Lee Konitz, Sal Nistico, Enrico Rava, Tony Scott, Kai Winding, and Phil Woods. After the turn of the millennium his CDs have often appeared on the CamJazz tag, including recordings - Play Morricone (2002), Current Conditions and Play Morricone, Vol. 2 (both 2003), Ballads (2006), Live in Japan (2007), and Dream Dance (2009) - with a trio featuring drummer Joey Baron and bassist Marc Johnson.
