Giardini, Felice (1716-1796)

Description:

Carmignola's "Italians in London"! Giuliano Carmignola, Italy's world-renowned Baroque violin prodigy, presents the "Six Violin Concertos, Op.15" by Felice Giardini (1716-1796), an 18th century Italian composer/violinist and disciple of Corelli's pupil Somis. ! Giardini is said to have been slapped by Yommelli when he performed Yommelli's work in front of the composer's eyes, because he added excessive improvisational ornaments to maximize his virtuosity. He made his debut in London in 1750, and is known to have settled there afterwards, where he became friends with Johann Christian Bach, Karl Friedrich Abel, and others. The unknown charm of Giardini's "Op.15" will be unleashed by the violin of master Carmignola. Tokyo M-Plus
