Although the Concerti Grossi and solo violin sonatas have been more enthusiastically received today, the true trio sonatas with two soprano (violin) lines must rank as the most central in Corelli's output. The present selection includes the full Opus 3, as well as some remaining sonatas not found in the published collections.

A review of this recording:

About seven years ago the Ensemble Aurora recorded four of the Op.3 trio-sonatas and received, along with praise for their suave tone, criticism in some quarters for ponderousness and mannered style. As if in response, Enrico Gatti accompanies the present disc, for which the personnel has changed, with an extraordinary 18-page Platonian dialogue extolling the virtues of slowness and deliberation-"this is not music to be gulped down, but rather to be sipped drop by drop"-and, since the sonate da chiesa were originally performed in church, keeping ornamentation well within bounds (quoting Roger North, that this has "no use in consort, and for that reason the best masters decline this and sound plane"). Gatti likewise finds chapter and verse (Banchieri and Quantz) for playing quick movements more slowly than usual; and his savouring of Corelli's chains of suspensions perfectly exemplifies Milton's "linked sweetness long drawn out." Daunting as this may at first appear, the results are rarely stolid, but respond to the restraint and buon gusto by which Corelli set such store: slow movements have purity and simplicity, and fugal movements (which include fugued dance forms in the sonate da camera) retain clarity of outline; and the players obviously relish the few opportunities for technical display, as in Op.3 no.12. Dynamics tend to be terraced rather than nuanced, but this is in accord with a sobriety of style that, in the actual experience of listening-aided as it is by realistic recording-proves very persuasive.

LIONEL SALTER

another review:
This set contains two discs of sonatas by Corelli, certainly the most important baroque Italian composer because of the influence his work had on other, later composers. The structure of his sonatas set the standard for later works, with their four movements alternating slow-fast-slow-fast. In addition, the slow movements were often quite simple, allowing the lead violinist to improvise over them.


Corelli's sonatas have a great deal of emotion and feeling, and the music is subtle and restrained. Its simplicity recalls the English viol consort, but the sound is more modern, more incisive. This is not the violin pyrotechnics of Vivaldi, but tasteful music that relaxes and soothes. The rich, lush sound this small ensemble provides is seductive and compelling. The recording is magnificent and intimate, and the strings sound out individually, especially in the slow movements.


The ensemble shows its skills in the occasional contrapuntal writing, as in the allegro of Sonata VI. The sound here is one of a very tight group, playing as almost a Haydn string quartet, yet with that self-effacement that makes baroque music sound so real.

This is a wonderful, almost essential recording to understand the Italian baroque and one of its emblematic composers. With a near-perfect performance and recording, you will net be disappointed. Kudos to Arcana for excellent notes, which give an extensive discussion of the music and its context.
