Il Giardino Armonico: Artist Portrait

Well, for those that know Il Giardino Armonico, there is not much to say. Nice selection of works, well-known concertos from Vivaldi and Bach. Some small pieces, too.

But, for those that do not know Il Giardino Armonico, well... you are in for a surprise. Noise. Movement. You can listen to the player's gestures. You can even imagine their hair flying all over their face (not really sure about this ;-) ).
This group puts each instrument and interpreter under the spotlight. There can be historical evidence that suggests that this was in fact the way it was played, before music became an idol in itself. Therefore it is irreverent, gay (no reference to orientation), novel, controversial, abusive, imaginative, irreverent, and communicative.
No doubt worth listening to, but certainly no obligation to adopt. Listen to the plasticity of sounds, and the new dimension the works acquire.
