Concerti Per Flauto Giuliano Carmignola

Giovanni Antonini, virtuoso flautist and orchestral conductor, is the founder of the Italian ensemble Il Giardino Armonico, which burst on the baroque musical scene in 1985; together they have amassed an impressive discography. Partnered by Alpha Classics, they have launched a complete recording of the 107 symphonies by Joseph HAYDN, in anticipation of the 300th anniversary of his birth in 2032. Il Giardino Armonico is celebrating a composer with whose music he made his name: Antonio VIVALDI. With Antonini as soloist in a programme of his own devising recorded between 2011 and 2017, a generous bouquet of the Concerti per Flauto: RV 433 ('La Tempesta di Mare'), plus the Concertos RV 441, 442 443, 444, and 445, and an amazing version of 'Cum Dederit', a solo from Nisi Dominus RV 608, for the chalumeau, the predecessor to the modern-day clarinet.
