Review by Cx Rana

Concerti Armonici by Unico Wilhelm Van Wassenaer, as performed by I Musici, is a stunning collection of baroque music that showcases the composer's skill and the ensemble's virtuosity. The album features six concertos, each with its own unique character and style, ranging from the lively and energetic to the contemplative and introspective.

Throughout the album, I Musici's performances are impeccable, with each member of the ensemble demonstrating their mastery of their respective instruments. The interplay between the different sections of the orchestra is particularly impressive, with the violins, violas, cellos, and basses all working together to create a rich and dynamic sound.

One of the standout tracks on the album is the third concerto, which features a beautiful and haunting melody played by the solo violin. The orchestra supports the soloist with gentle harmonies, creating a sense of intimacy and introspection that is truly captivating.

About Unico Wilhelm Van Wassenaer, I Musici

Dutch diplomat and composer (2 November 1692, Delden, Overijssel  9 November 1766, The Hague). Unico Wilhelm Van Wassenaer (1692-1766), a Dutch nobleman, was famously the author of the Concerti Armonici long thought to have been by the Italian composer Giovanni Battista Pergolesi (1710-1736) (they were attributed back to their legitimate author only in 1980). Three sonatas for recorder and continuo were discovered only in 1992 (and recorded soon after) and, with the Concerti, are the only known works of Van Wassenaer. He may have been the author of Pergolesis Concerti, but, on the basis of these Sonatas, he wasnt Pergolesi, and even less Vivaldi. The Sonatas are agreeable and valuable salon music, alternating the meditative/plangent and the more lively and dance-like, but never with the melodic or harmonic invention, the moving pathos in the Largos and the uplifting boistereousness in the Allegros, of the greats.
