Music reviews of Vivaldi: Complete Cello Concertos

Music Review: Playing versus Production
Rating: 3 Stars

I was given the Naxos edition Vivaldi: Cello Concerti, Vol. 3 of Raphael Wallfisch playing these Vivaldi Concerti. I had not heard these works before, and after hearing this CD I wanted to have the entire set. After reading the reviews for the Harnoy edition, I decided that the RCA complete collection was the way to go instead of buying each Naxos Vol separately. The RCA version a great price for a large collection.

I don't think one can find fault with Harnoy's playing. She is less aggressive than Wallfisch; some like Vivaldi more aggressive, others less so. However, when compared to the Naxos edition, the overall RCA recording seems muffled, with Harnoy's cello blending in with the accompanying instruments. The sound is simply homogenized. Additionally, there are irregularities with the interpretation of the concerti. Although Harnoy is the cellist in all the pieces, the entire set includes two different conductors, two different harpsichordists, and different cello continuos. The differences are slight, but they are there.

This having been said, I like a solo instrument to stand out, whereas others like them to blend in a bit more, to sound less "out there." If the later is your thing, then I'd say the Harnoy version would be a good fit. If you like a more prominent place for the soloist, then try the Wallfisch version.
