Background: Every so often one encounters a composer whose innovations had an enormous impact on music but whom subsequent events overshadowed. One such is Giuseppe Torelli, a great innovator who deserves to be credited with much of the early development of the concerto.

This fascinating disc includes the Concerti op.8, a landmark opus worthy of special attention, for it influenced a whole new generation of composers including Vivaldi,Telemann and Bach. These historically accurate performances give us a chance to experience these ground-breaking concertos as they would have been heard at the time, and will prove popular with scholars and fans of early music alike.
