Sonatas for Cello & Continuo

ABOUT THE ALBUM
Written around 1740, this collection of Sonatas was likely composed to celebrate the arrival of the illustrious Salvatore Lanzetti, an incredible cello virtuoso, at the official court of Turin. It was at this noble destination that the fifty-year-old Giovanni Battista Somis, forefather of the Piedmontese school of violin that included the most famous interpreters of Italian music, wrote these works and elaborated upon his compositional idea of extreme elegance that differed from the works being composed by his peers. Here, the works are recorded by Ensemble Il Continuo, which consists of Gioele Gusberti, Claudio Frigerio, and Marija Jovanovich, all renowned soloists and chamber musicians in their home countries.
