5.0 out of 5 stars Baroque Fun, October 20, 2000
By 
"kek5" (Westerville, Ohio USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Corelli: Concerti Grossi Op. 6, Nos. 1 - 6 (Audio CD)
Corelli's Concerti Grossi Op. 6 is baroque music at it's finest; tuneful, jaunty and lots of fun. If the first Concerto Grosso on this CD cannot convert you to a Corelli and Baroque fan, well, chances are nothing will. Fortunately, Naxos has recorded Op. 6 with the excellent Capella Istropolitana conducted by Jaroslav Krecheck, so we now have an superb version on modern instruments at a bargain price. So those who don't know this music can try it without risking too much capital.

The Capella Istropolitana is a very good band in both intonation and ensemble, and Krecheck's direction is both fleet and stylish. And while modern instruments are used, period performance practices are observed with regards to quick tempos and rhythmic bounce. So unless you cannot live without period instruments, this version represents an excellent hybrid of styles and is recommended without reservation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Glorious Music, December 28, 2004
This review is from: Corelli: Concerti Grossi Op. 6, Nos. 1 - 6 (Audio CD)
Corelli's Concerti Grossi, Op.6 created a sensation when first performed, were the model for composers such as Handel in his own Concerti Grossi, Op. 6, and have won raves up until today.

I first heard a recording of the Corelli Concerti Grossi, Op. 6 performed by the English Concert, conducted by Trevor Pinnock.

This is glorious music. The question of whether one prefers performances on modern versus period instruments is highly subjective and a matter of taste. I tend to prefer this recording (modern instruments) - I own two period recordings: Pinnock/ English Concert, and Goodman/ Brandenburg Consort. But perhaps my greatest pleasure is seeing the reactions of friends hearing this wonderful music for the first time. Excellent performances; ditto for Concertos 7-12.

Very full, immediate sound.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful budget recordings of Corelli's most recorded Opus from the Slovak Republic, November 28, 2005
This review is from: Corelli: Concerti Grossi Op. 6, Nos. 1 - 6 (Audio CD)
Naxos has done a great service to music lovers everywhere offering this release of Corelli's Opus 6 Concerti Grossi by the Capella Istropolitana/Jaroslav Krechek, a beautiful digital recording made in 1990. The musicians of Capella Istropolitana, a large chamber orchestra made up of members of the Slovak Philharmonic, play very well here, and surpass many other recordings of these famous works. (Incidentally, Capella Istropolitana is named after a Medieval university located in Bratislava.) Capella Istropolitana is an modern, NOT period instrument ensemble, and play with appropriate vibrato, but are definitely in a Classical, Chamber type of sound for Corelli's music. They play with appropriate heft where needed, but are always on the lean side, emphasizing the delicacy of textures and sound called for by Corelli's string writing.

My high praise for Volume 1 of Corelli's Opus 6 also applies to Volume 2, by the same forces. I would get both volumes of these lovely works: there are many pleasures to be had, and for so little money you get great sound AND performances. Highly recommended!
