IL PROGETTO VIVALDI 3

Sol Gabetta is op dit moment één van de bekendste en beste verkopende cellisten, die bij bronnenonderzoek in Schloss Wiesentheid, Duitsland werd verrast. Zij vindt in de archieven van de cello spelende Graaf Rudolf Franz Erwein celloconcerten van Giovanni Platti, Andrea Teodoro Zani en Fortunato Chelleri. Alle drie de componisten schreven in opdracht van de graaf. Samen met Capella Gabetta onder leiding van haar broer Andres Gabetta brengt zij deze wereldprimeurs alsmede en vier celloconcerten van Vivaldi die een must voor de liefhebber zijn. Heerlijke werken die een groot publiek zullen aanspreken.

Sol Gabetta is the most famous and best-selling female cellist worldwide.

Her brilliant and emotional playing and her great stage presence and charming nature made her a real star of today´s classical music scene.

For "Il progetto Vivaldi 3" she again teams up with her baroque music ensemble Cappella Gabetta, founded by her and her brother Andrés Gabetta who is the concertmaster of this ensemble.

For this new CD Sol and the Cappella Gabetta recorded three beautiful cello concertos by Antonio Vivaldi but also breathtaking baroque cello concertos which have been rarely recorded and heard before. The cello concerto by Fortunato Chelleri (1690-1757) is a world premiere recording.

The cello concertos by Giovanni B. Platti (1697?-1763), Andrea Teodoro Zani (1696-1757), and Fortunato Chelleri (1690-1757) were hidden in an archive in Schloss Wiesentheid, a castle near Wuerzburg in Bavaria/Germany. These gems of baroque music were discovered when Sol was looking for interesting new repertoire. All these works were commissioned by the duke of Schloss Wiesentheid who played cello himself and hired these Italian composers.

Sol used two different cellos to play this splendid baroque music: her Guadagini cello from 1759 (with gut strings) and her Gagliano from 1781. The Cappella Gabetta plays on authentic instruments as well.
