Bring together Europe’s finest period instrument players, Baroque music ensemble II Giardino Armonico first came to prominence with definitive performances of Vivaldi’s concerti. Their ground-breaking recording of The Four Seasons and many other of their CDs have received top recording industry prizes including Diapason d’Or, Gramophone Award and Choc du Monde de la Musique prize. The group’s involvement with Cecilia Bartoli, who enchanted audiences in the 39th HKAF, on two Grammy-winning recordings, The Vivaldi Album and Sacrificium, has brought them even greater celebrity.
Bearing out their reputation as today’s unrivalled Vivaldi interpreters, their concerts features Vivaldi in context with several Italian and German contemporaries, including Handel, Biber and Telemann, exploring music for strings and two early woodwind instruments, the chalumeau and flautino.
