Our Take

When it comes to string orchestras, the Solisti Aquilani led by the illustrious Flavio Scogna are the cream of the crop. This album, featuring works by Bartok, Ghedini, Rota, and Hindemith, is a veritable feast for the ears.

The opening track, Bartok's "Romanian Folk Dances," is a lively and energetic piece that showcases the ensemble's technical prowess. From the nimble violin solos to the rich, resonant cello tones, every note is executed with precision and passion.

Ghedini's "Contrappunti" offers a stark contrast, with its haunting melodies and intricate harmonies. The musicians navigate the complex score with ease, creating a dark and brooding atmosphere that is both captivating and chilling.

Rota's "Concerto per archi" is a breathtaking showcase of the ensemble's versatility. From the delicate pizzicato passages to the soaring crescendos, every moment is filled with emotion and intensity.

Closing out the album is Hindemith's "Five Pieces for String Orchestra," a tour de force of composition and performance. The Solisti Aquilani bring a sense of urgency and drama to each movement, leaving the listener spellbound until the final, triumphant chord rings out.

In conclusion, Solisti Aquilani / Flavio Scogna's album is a must-listen for any fan of string orchestral music. With their impeccable technique and emotional depth, this ensemble proves once again why they are at the top of their game.
