Caldara: XII Sinfonie a Quattro - Ars Antiqua Austria, Letzbor

Antonio Caldara
XII Sinfonie a Quattro
Ars Antiqua Austria, Gunar Letzbor
Arcana A 324

There has been no doubt that, sooner or later, Gunar Letzbor would turn his attention to Antonio Caldara (1670-1736). The praiseworthy activity of this noted violinist and director in redrawing the musical map of the Austrian baroque could not ignore the cosmopolitan figure, admired by Bach and many others and who, in these present days, is being established as one of the major composers from the first half of the eighteenth century. A stunning achievement.
