Tarantella E Un Po'di Follie / Various (Box)- Tarantella E Un Po'di Follie / Various (Box) (CD)
L'Arpeggiata and Christina Pluhar have blazed new trails in the rediscovery and interpretation of Baroque music, Italian in particular. The five recordings they made for Alpha are among the biggest-ever successes in this repertory. La Tarantella, above all, has enjoyed undimmed enthusiasm from the public ever since it's original release: this blend of Baroque music on period instruments and traditional repertory from southern Italy, served by instrumentalists and singers in search of an authentic interpretation, made the ensemble's reputation. In this boxed set, L'Arpeggiata offers us an anthology combining sacred and secular music, dances and improvisations.
