Description

VIVALDI is the second album with Mathieu Lussier directing Les Violons du Roy, and the orchestra’s 11th album on the ATMA Classique label.

The soloists of the Quebec-based ensemble Les Violons du Roy and their associate conductor, Mathieu Lussier, have selected quintessential works from the 500 concertos composed for various instruments by Antonio Vivaldi. Two concertos from L’Estro armonico — a huge hit in its day — are featured, as well as other concertos for violins, cello, bassoon, oboe, trumpet, and horn.
