Album Description

Immerse yourself in the intricate and virtuosic world of Pietro Locatelli with this captivating collection of his Op. 4 works, released on Hyperion in 1997. This album is a testament to Locatelli's mastery of the violin and his innovative compositional style, which blends the Baroque and early Classical periods. Spanning a generous 98 minutes, the album features a diverse range of sonatas and concertos, each showcasing Locatelli's unique musical language and technical brilliance.

The album opens with a series of sonatas, or "Introduttione," each consisting of three movements that display a variety of moods and tempos. These pieces are notable for their intricate counterpoint and demanding violin parts, which highlight Locatelli's prowess as both a composer and a performer. The concertos that follow are equally impressive, with the Violin Concerto in F Major "à immitazione de Corni da Caccia" standing out for its unique imitation of hunting horns and the Violin Concerto in C Minor "a 5 da chiesa" for its dramatic and expressive depth.

Throughout the album, Locatelli's music is characterized by its technical complexity, harmonic richness, and expressive power.
