Our Take

I VIRTUOSI DELLA ROTONDA / LUIGI PUXEDDU – Boccherini: String Quintets Op.30 & Op.31 / Vol. XI

Oh dear Boccherini, you cheeky little minx. The Italian composer has always been known for his playful and cheeky compositions, and this album is no exception. I VIRTUOSI DELLA ROTONDA, under the masterful direction of LUIGI PUXEDDU, bring these string quintets to life with a vivacity that is truly infectious.

Op.30 and Op.31 are two of Boccherini's lesser-known works, but don't let that fool you. These quintets are bursting with energy and charm, showcasing Boccherini's mastery of the string ensemble. The players handle the intricate passages with precision and grace, weaving a tapestry of sound that is both delicate and powerful.

From the lilting melodies of Op.30 to the dramatic flourishes of Op.31, each quintet takes the listener on a journey through Boccherini's musical imagination. The dynamic interplay between the players creates a sense of camaraderie that is both enchanting and exhilarating.

So grab a glass of fine Italian wine, put on your best pair of headphones, and let I VIRTUOSI DELLA ROTONDA and LUIGI PUXEDDU take you on a musical adventure like no other. Boccherini would be proud.
