Porta Magna: Cello Sonatas
Italy's Baroque composers produced extraordinary chamber music often overshadowed by their Germanic counterparts. This collection gathers works from Alessandro Scarlatti, Domenico Gabrielli, Giuseppe Maria Jacchini, and Stefano Veggetti—all master cellists and composers from the 17th and 18th centuries. Ensemble Cordia approaches these sonatas with period awareness and genuine warmth, letting the intimate dialogue between instruments shine through. The cello lines are lyrical and dancing, supported by continuo accompaniment that breathes naturally. You'll hear elegant craftsmanship, surprising harmonic turns, and that special quality of Baroque music where restraint makes every gesture matter. Essential listening for anyone drawn to the cello's expressive range and Italian instrumental traditions.
