Bartolomeo Campagnoli (1751-1827) was a violinist by training, who worked in the courts and capitals of Baroque-era Europe, with posts in Rome, Dresden, and then (from 1797 to 1818) in Leipzig, where he was leader of the venerable Gewandhaus Orchestra.He learned his trade with famous Italian musicians Tartini and Nardini. Campagnoli claimed for himself “the German learnedness with Italian soul”, and his works abound in lyrical melodies set into the firm musical structures of the First Viennese School.This 3-CD set presents string quartets, flute quartets, and duos for flute & violin, highly attractive works in prevailing light and lyrical mood.Performed in historically informed performance practice by the Ensemble Symposium, the Ensemble Il Demetrio, and Stefano Parrino (flute) and Francesco Parrino (violin).Recordings were previously issued separately on Brilliant Classics, here receiving a new lease of life as a 3-CD set.
