It's amazing what sounds good on a guitar. Arrangements belong here to the fixed repertoire, and when it comes to baroque music, this procedure is a common procedure anyway. Some examples of this have been recorded by the ARTIS guitar duo here. The repertoire ranges from George Frideric Handel to Johann Sebastian Bach. Of course, Antonio Vivaldi should not miss the lute composer Silvius Leopold Weiss and, as representative of the French Baroque, François Couperin.
The result is convincing. Although the guitar is far from being able to record it with the sonic splendor of a keyboard instrument or even a baroque orchestra, it has other strengths, especially if it is played as excellently as in this case. Julia and Christian Zielinski are masters of their craft, there is no doubt about that after listening to this CD. They make use of the guitar sound in a multi-faceted way and contain style-extravagant extravagances. Her play is as subtle as it is peppy and leaves nothing to be desired.
The polyphonic structures of many works sound surprisingly transparent and clear, the tempos are consistently adequate, and the interpretive stringency is excellent. For example, the B major Chaconne Handel (HWV 435) performs in a lively manner, in a Concerto by Weiss the guitars replace two lutes and in a Concerto Vivaldis even a baroque guitar (Olaf van Gonnissen) and a theorbo (Sergio Bermudez Bullido) are added but to ensure such a kind of orchestral sound and the change to the two solo instruments. All of this sounds harmonious, easy, sometimes musical music. A round thing! © 2019 Classic today
