All of the composers on this album, by virtuosa violinist Chouchane Siranossian and the Venice Baroque Orchestra under Andrea Marcon, are programmed with some frequency, and Vivaldi is, of course, a standard. It is well known that violinist-composer stars like Pietro Locatelli, Giuseppe Tartini, and Francesco Maria Veracini became known across Europe and in England, although Vivaldi's own talents as a violinist are sometimes forgotten. However, what Siranossian does here is new. Under the rubric Duello d'archi a Venezia ("string duel in Venice"), she offers works by these four composers, comparing and contrasting them. The big, spectacular sounds are amped up by the Alpha label's engineers with an ultra-reverberant acoustic that they don't really need; the music is perfectly capable of standing on its own, yet the contrasts in personality and technique among the four composers come through anyhow. There is the ultra-athletic Locatelli, a direct inspiration for Paganini decades later. There is the dramatic and imposing Veracini and Tartini, fluent even up to the top registers. The Vivaldi Violin Concert in D major, RV 208, is a marvelous one, not often heard, in which the composer essays some of the weird harmonic effects the others used to try to send shivers down their audiences' spines. The overall effect is exactly what Siranossian and company intend: the listener is placed, insofar as such a thing is possible, into the role of a hearer of a virtuoso violin concert in the middle of the 18th century. It is quite an exciting experiment, and it landed on classical best-seller lists in the spring of 2023.
