Simply put, if you enjoy 18th-century violin music, you'll find an hour of pure pleasure listening to this expertly played program of unusual, rarely heard concertos by mostly lesser-known Neapolitan composers (Pergolesi excepted!). Elizabeth Wallfisch and her colleagues deliver performances that can only be described as ideal–sensibly paced, articulate, and to the point. They just play the music, albeit with sincere attention to its innate rhythmic energy and assertive melodic character. There's a stylistic similarity to these pieces, but the spotlight moves from the vocally-inspired solo lines of Pergolesi's Concerto in B-flat and the A major sonata to the rich-textured orchestral dialog of Leonardo Leo's D major concerto for four violins. This latter piece is a fine example of both string writing and formal baroque style. Francesco Durante's Concerto No. 5 for string orchestra is a fiercely agitated, vivacious six-minute work that's both unadventurous and fundamentally exciting. Considering the abundance of recordings that feature works by the best-known 18th-century masters, this release is a welcome alternative, one that clearly accentuates the virtues of music that's often passed over or relegated to second-tier status. The sound couldn't be better–we hear soloist and ensemble in a natural setting that allows desirable space and intimate detail. – David Vernier
