| Having completed the entire trilogy of Handel’s Concerti grossi, the Akademie Fur Alte Musik Berlin presents a recording of the first six Concerti grossi, Op. 6 by the composer, ensemble leader and violin virtuoso Arcangelo Corelli, who received the almost cult-like reverence during his lifetime. The composer had been experimenting with this one of the most distinctive forms of instrumental music of the Baroque era since the late 1670s, but it was only towards the end of his life that he sought to publish these compositions and selected only twelve exemplary pieces from what was probably a much larger collection. He laid the foundations of this instrumental form for future composers such as the aforementioned Georg Frederic Handel, who paid tribute to the Italian Baroque master with his two opuses. The Akademie Fur Alte Musik Berlin and it’s two concertmasters, Mayumi Hirasaki and Georg Kallweit, who demonstrate their extraordinary virtuosity, only prove why they are regarded as one of the most influential period-instrument ensembles of today.The Akademie Fur Alte Musik Berlin has a substantial PENTATONE discography, including the Diapason d’Or awarded CANTATA with Bejun Mehta (2018), Handel’s Concerti grossi Op. 3 and 6 (released in 2019 and 2020), Telemann’s Miriways (2020), Handel’s Messiah (2020), Haydn’s L’isola disabitata (2021), La Passione with Christina Landshamer (2022), a recording of Mozart’s Paris and Haffner symphonies and the Oboe Concerto with Xenia Loffler (2023), Telemann’s Ino (2024), and a recording with Mozart’s symphonies Nos. 29 & 33 and the Clarinet Concerto with Ernst Schlader (2024).
