For many people, the poetry of the violinist Enrico Gatti, which we have been enjoying in concerts and on recordings (for labels such as Symphonia, Arcana and Glossa) for more than three decades is unparalleled when addressing the subtlest of Italian music from the 17th and 18th centuries. For this 1992 recording, Gatti alights upon some of the loveliest of 18th-century pieces for his instrument which were composed for the Court of Savoy in Turin, including works by Somis, Giardini and Pugnani, unveiling for us a fascinating and seldom-visited world.
