Baroque giants La Serenissima return with VIVALDI 8 – VOLUME 1: their new recording of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, among other concerti for ensemble by Vivaldi. Recognised for ‘whipping up a storm with Vivaldi’, La Serenissima is ‘one of Britain’s best-loved chamber orchestras’ (The Telegraph) known for their outstanding performances, championing a host of neglected Italian baroque composers. Uniquely, the group’s entire repertoire is edited from source material by founder and violinist, Adrian Chandler OSI.

★★★★★ Performance ★★★★★ Recording – “Be prepared to be enthralled by the energy and audacity of this version” – Gramophone

★★★★ Performance ★★★★★ Recording – “Chandler, like all pieces, approaches them with a carefree musician’s mood, a strong ensemble sound and a crisp bite … there is no question that Chandler has fullypermeated the music in all it’s facets.” – Fono Forum

★★★★ – “[Adrian Chandler’s] performance is absolutely polished, refined, and full of color. He also displays absolute mastery of the instrument and commands an instrumental group completely committed to the works recorded around its undisputed leader.” – Spanish Classical Music Magazine
