Concerto Italiano has achieved international benchmark status for groundbreaking interpretations of 17th and 18th century Italian music. Their recordings have revolutionized our perception of Baroque masterpieces and the ensemble has firmly established itself with critics and audiences as the finest of its kind in Italy today.
