专辑简介
"Of all the violin players of the last century Biber seems to have been the best, and his solos are the most difficult of any music I have seen of the same period." It is in these terms that the 18th century English music historian Charles Burney speaks of Heinrich Biber. This peerless violinist was just as gifted a composer, his works diffused as far afield as France and North Germany. His first opus, published by 1676, is a collection of twelve sonatas. In them, he reveals his mastery of the Italianate style then so popular in Austria, adding to the strings and basso continuo the bright sound of two trumpets. The seven partitas of his Harmonia Artificioso - Ariosa go even further in their quest for virtuosity. Among the "artifices" required of the two soloists is scordatura, a modification of the normal tuning of the strings that gives them still greater brilliance... and that Biber's distant successor Mozart was to use in his Sinfonia concertante K364.
