Concertos by Antonio Vivaldi
Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra

The Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra is not made up exclusively of orphan boys - quite the contrary! On this CD, the "Schwabenstreicher" (Swabian string players), as they like to refer to themselves, take on the roles of the orphan girls taught by Antonio Vivaldi and for whom he wrote countless concertos. In the supplementary text, Thomas Seedorf reports that the schoolgirls were all so eager to learn that they could take on whatever solo parts they liked. And because the present-day orphan girls - led by Ariadne Daskalakis - were so full of energy, they took care of seven pieces at once - in one go, as the title gives away. We wish you much enjoyment listening to all of these various impulses, personal timbres and effervescent interpretative ideas!

Fanfare (01/27/2014):
(...) The program as a whole combines vibrant recorded sound with performances that mix tension and relaxation in a way that never sounds derivative or mannered. It should appeal to almost any aficionado of the composer, except perhaps those who have become exclusive proponents of any period’s most fashionable period instrument sonorities. more...
