Album Notes & Community Reviews

A highly acclaimed interpretation of the essential Baroque concerti grossi, performed with exacting historical accuracy on period instruments. Trevor Pinnock leads The English Concert with a warm, playful dynamic that perfectly captures the complex, polyphonic interplay of Corelli's writing. The pristine recording quality highlights the rich, acoustic depth of the orchestral ensemble.
