In this programme, Holland Baroque brings a number of solo concertos never previously published, performed, or recorded: world premieres!
Giovanni Benedetto Platti was the court composer to Johann Philipp Franz von Schönborn, a German earl who collected over one hundred cello concertos and sonatas. After the untimely death of his wife, the duke found comfort and happiness in the cello. There is a true treasure trove of Baroque cello concertos in the archives of his castle. And of course, Vivaldi’s famous Concerto for two Cellos can’t miss in this Italian Baroque programme.
This concert will be recorded to be broadcast later by NTR on NPO Klassiek
