Concerti Grossi op. 6 nos. 1-4, 8 & 9

Album by Arcangelo Corelli & New Classical Orchestra, Saint Petersburg & Aleksander Titov

Concerti Grossi, Op. 6 is a set of concerti grossi by Arcangelo Corelli, published posthumously in 1714. Representative of the late Baroque concerto grosso form, the works feature contrasts between a small concertino and a larger ripieno ensemble, lyrical violin writing and clear harmonic architecture, and they occupy a central place in the development of Italian Baroque instrumental music.
First released: 1994
