A. Corelli

Concerti grossi op. 6, 1-6

»Corellis Concerti grossi entpuppen sich in den Händen der Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin damit als reiche Klanglandschaft, die zu einer ständigen Neuentdeckung und Erkundung einlädt. Zumal die Palette an natürlichen und blühenden Klangfarben bei diesem Ensemble einfach unerschöpflich zu sein scheint.«

Rondo Magazin, Höchstwertung

»Corelli’s Concerti grossi, with their blend of pure beauty and maturity, represent the very essence of the genre. We were thrilled to bring our own Akamus flair to these inspiring works. Let them inspire you as well!«

Mayumi Hirasaki & Georg Kallweit

At the beginning of the 18th century, all of Europe was gripped by the concerti grossi fever. At that time, all roads led to Rome, where Arcangelo Corelli, with his Op. 6 collection of concertos, ushered in a new era of instrumental music. Corelli’s concertos set a small group of players against a larger one and rely entirely on the elegance and warmth of the string sound. Even today, they amaze listeners with their remarkable tonal differentiation and the close interweaving of all the string parts.
