Locatelli's Concerti Grossi Op.1 are foundational Baroque works that deserve more attention than they usually receive. This 2006 Harmonia Mundi recording by the Freiburger Barockorchester under Gottfried von der Goltz uses period instruments and historically informed performance to bring these pieces vividly to life. The concertos alternate between brilliant solo passages and rich ensemble sections, creating compelling architectural design. Von der Goltz and his ensemble play with clarity and energy, letting you hear exactly what Locatelli was composing. If you love Baroque concertos but know mainly Vivaldi and Corelli, this is a natural next step. Genuinely rewarding music.
