Sergio Azzolini - Vivaldi - Concerti per fagotto Vol. V (2021) [Official Digital Download 24/88]

The VIVALDI edition now comprises 66 episodes and it was only with time that the immensity of Vivaldi's concert repertoire came fully to light. The violin is by no means the only instrument he preferred: the rank of the bassoon in his oeuvre is remarkable both in terms of the number of works, as well as in the stylistic homogeneity and solistic treatment of an instrument previously confined to the continuo.

Since 2009, SERGIO AZZOLINI has already recorded four CDs of bassoon concertos for the VIVALDI edition-an anthology which he continues with seven new concertos to the 26 published ones. For this production, AZZOLINI has rounded out his orchestra L'ONDA ARMONICA with woodwinds, theorbo, lute, guitar, harp, organ and harpsichord. He decided to do so after intensive study of the Vivaldi scores, which were originally only designed for a string ensemble, but which were given completely new colours for performances by the addition of a large number of wind instruments. This extended ensemble gives the concerts a highly dramatic character and underlies the bassoon in lyrical and elegiac passages as well as in moments of exuberant brilliance.
