Our Take

Francesco Corti's latest offering, "Handel: Winged Hands" is a delightful romp through Handel's iconic Eight Great Suites and Overtures. This album is a whimsical journey through Baroque music, with Corti's expert piano skills breathing new life into these classic compositions.

From the lively Overture to "The Water Music Suite" to the hauntingly beautiful "Suite in D Minor," Corti's playful interpretation of Handel's work is both refreshing and captivating. His nimble fingers dance across the keys, bringing a sense of joy and elegance to each track.

What sets "Winged Hands" apart from other Handel recordings is Corti's unique ability to balance tradition with innovation. He respects the original compositions while injecting his own personality and flair into the music. The result is a truly modern take on these timeless pieces.

Listeners will find themselves tapping their feet and humming along to melodies they may have heard a thousand times before, but never quite like this. Corti's passion for Handel's music is evident in every note, making "Winged Hands" a must-listen for fans of Baroque music and newcomers alike.

So grab a glass of champagne, kick back, and let Francesco Corti's magical fingers transport you to a world where elegance and charm reign supreme. "Handel: Winged Hands" is a triumph of musicality and wit, and a welcome addition to any classical music collection.
