About this album
A lively and sharply focused Vivaldi recital, this album brings together concertos for unusual combinations of instruments in spirited period performances by Christopher Hogwood and the Academy of Ancient Music. Recorded in the late 1970s, it reflects the early music movement’s drive to restore Baroque repertoire with greater historical awareness, clarity and rhythmic bite. The pairing of brilliant trumpet writing, elegant flutes, vigorous strings and the concertos’ contrasting colours makes the programme feel varied as well as coherent. Hogwood’s direction helped establish the Academy of Ancient Music as a major force in Baroque interpretation.
