Alessandro Scarlatti, whose music is now being recognized as at least as innovative, brilliant and profound as that of his son Domenico, is lately making a glorious comeback. These "12 sinfonie di concerto grosso", brimming with energy, Italian charm and gusto, are concertante works, either for a variety of solo instruments (concerto grosso) or for solo recorder and strings. Founded by Alexandra Nigito, Capella Tiberina blends a passion for early music with a rigorous approach to musicological research. Acclaimed recorder soloist Corina Marti plays the four solo recorder concertos.
