Info for Duport: Sonates & Duo for Cello

The world premiere recording on period instruments of Jean-Louis Duport's Six Sonatas for cello and bass, and Three Duos for two cellos performed by Claudio Ronco and Emanuela Vozza.

This album is a tribute to the composer who contributed to the evolution of music for the cello, which took place during the slow but grandiose development between the Baroque and Romantic periods. A slight interest has dedicated to the art of Duport as a composer, despite the attention on to the didactic practice of his studies, ignoring the treasure represented by his most important compositions. A serious fault from the discographic point of view, despite the well-known fact that we inherited the cello basic technique right from Jean-Louis Duport, and we have used it successfully for two centuries.

"The playing by both Claudio Ronco and Emanuel Vozza is superb. They handle the clear technical challenges with clarity and ease, never letting the virtuosity outweigh the need for musicality. The tones are wonderfully resonant, and even in the tricky highest registers, I can discern no intonational glitches." (Fanfare)

Claudio Ronca, cello
