Vitali / Semperconsort / Cozzolino Trio Sonatas Op 2 CD

Seventeenth century Bolognese master Giovanni Battista Vitali composed these charming small-scale Sonate da Chiesa for only two violins and continuo making the style accessible for small churches and competent amateurs of the day and becoming quite popular in the process. Semperconsort astutely display the works to their best advantage for a new audience.
