Our Take
Our Take
The duo of Raffaele La Ragione and Marco Crosetto have truly outdone themselves on their latest album "Beethoven And His Contemporaries: Music For Mandolin And Fortepiano." Here, they delve into the lesser-known works of Beethoven and his musical pals, bringing to light some hidden gems that will have you tapping your toes in no time.
From the opening track, "Sonata for Fortepiano and Mandolin in C Major," the playful interplay between the two instruments is immediately apparent. La Ragione's nimble fingers dance across the mandolin strings, while Crosetto's skillful touch on the fortepiano adds depth and complexity to each composition.
Standout tracks include "Rondo for Fortepiano and Mandolin in A Minor," a bouncy and energetic piece that showcases the duo's impressive technical prowess, and "Adagio For Fortepiano And Mandolin in G Major," a hauntingly beautiful ballad that will tug at your heartstrings.
The production on this album is top-notch, with each instrument being given its own space to shine. The recording quality is crisp and clear, allowing every delicate nuance of the music to be fully appreciated.
Overall, "Beethoven And His Contemporaries" is a delightful listen that showcases the talents of La Ragione and Crosetto in a truly unique and engaging way. Whether you're a fan of classical music or just looking for something a bit different to add to your playlist, this album is sure to satisfy. Highly recommended.
