Notes
Boccherini: Cello Concerto, G 480; Quintets, G 451 and G 436; Sextet, G 463 – Marco Ceccato, Accademia Ottoboni, Manuel Granatiero, Francesco Romano
This recording follows a first collaboration between Zig-Zag Territoires and Marco Ceccato (Sonatas by Vivaldi), widely hailed by the press. It is devoted to two important aspects of the work of Luigi Boccherini: chamber music and the cello, on which he was a great virtuoso.
The two quintets and the divertimento feature the instrumental combination of the string quartet – which Boccherini, in a way, co-founded with Haydn – sometimes with the guitar, sometimes with the flute having place of honour, and always with a delightful use of those instruments’ sound capabilities. Of course, the cello is then to the fore in the Concerto in G major, offering a wealth of virtuosity and lyricism.
