Info zu Vivaldi Concertos for Flute, Violin, Bassoon & Orchestra

Antonio Vivaldi (1678–1741) war ein italienischer Barockkomponist, virtuoser Geiger und Priester, der vor allem für seine dynamischen Instrumentalkonzerte und seine innovativen Orchesterkompositionen bekannt ist. Der in Venedig geborene Vivaldi wurde sowohl in Musik als auch in Theologie ausgebildet und wurde schließlich Geigenlehrer und Komponist am Ospedale della Pietà, einem Waisenhaus für Mädchen mit einem außergewöhnlichen Musikprogramm. Während seiner Zeit dort schuf er viele seiner besten Instrumentalwerke und trug zur Prägung des unverwechselbaren venezianischen Barockstils bei.

Alessandro Ciccolini
A baroque violinist, he worked for several years as first violin with La Cappella della Pietà dei Turchini in Naples, and currently continues his collaboration with maestro A. Florio as concertmaster of the ensemble I Turchini, performing in major concert halls and festivals around the world. He has also collaborated with the most renowned early music ensembles, including “Concerto Soave” in Marseille and “Il Complesso Barocco” conducted by A. Curtis.

On October 16, 1994, a concert was organized at Stift Rein, near the city of Graz, with a program consisting entirely of his own compositions, written for the occasion, which were very well received. Since then, his work as a composer and reviser has been inseparable from his work as a violinist.

He edited the oratorio “Assalonne Punito” by P. A. Ziani, composing the instrumental parts that had been lost. This version was performed in 1997 in Naples, in 1998 in Piacenza and in Berlin by the ensemble “Il Complesso Barocco” conducted by Maestro A. Curtis. In 2005, the same American maestro commissioned him to reconstruct A. Vivaldi's recently rediscovered opera “Motezuma.” This reconstruction was recorded in 2006 for Deutsche Grammophon and published in 2010 by the Baerenreiter publishing house.

In July 2006, the Festival dei Due Mondi in Spoleto staged his reconstruction of A. Vivaldi's opera “Ercole sul Termodonte” under the direction of Maestro A. Curtis.

He reconstructed the comic parts of Domenico Scarlatti's opera “Ottavia restituita al trono,” performed under the direction of A. Florio at the Victoria Eugenia Theater in San Sebastian during the “Quincena musical 2007.”

From 2010 to 2013, he conducted the Orfeo Futuro orchestra, performing J.S. Bach's Magnificat and his own compositions, including: a Laudate Dominum for soprano, choir, and orchestra; a Salve Regina for soprano and strings; a cantata for soprano and instruments, Ero e Leandro, also performed at the XV Festival Musicale Estense Grandezze e Meraviglie in Modena and later at the Anima Mea festival in Molfetta; and a Lezione del Mercoledì Santo for soprano, contralto, and strings.

In 2013, the French record label Naive recorded his reconstruction of A. Vivaldi's opera “Catone in Utica” for the Vivaldi Edition, conducted by maestro A. Curtis; it was subsequently published by the American publishing house Boosey & Hawkes. In 2017, he conducted the first performance of his “Stabat Mater” for soprano, contralto, and orchestra in Lodi for the association “La Lira d'Orfeo,” and his Salve Regina for three sopranos and orchestra was performed at the Palau de la Musica in Valencia by the “Capella de Ministrers” conducted by Carles Magraner.

He has recorded for: Accent, Harmonia Mundi, Opus 111, Stradivarius, Tactus, ORF, BBC, RAI 1, and RAI 3.

For the Symphonia record label, he has recorded two CDs containing compositions performed for the first time in the modern era: “Il primo libro delle sonate di violino del Sig. Aldebrando Subissati sonator Famosissimo, Fossombrone 1675” released in 1997 and “Concerti da chiesa a quattro stromenti op II, Casalmaggiore 1729” by composer Andrea Zani, released in 1998. For the Brilliant Classics record label, in 2011, he recorded a CD containing the Sonatas opera Quarta by T. Albinoni and in 2016 a CD containing the first recording in the modern era of the sonatas opera quarta by Pietro Degli Antoni.

Together with harpsichordist Francesco Baroni and talented young musicians, he founded the Compagnia de Violini ensemble, whose aim is to bring the wonderful Italian instrumental repertoire of the 17th and 18th centuries to today's audience through rigorous philological research.

He teaches Baroque violin at the A. Boito Conservatory in Parma.
