TRIPLA CONCORDIA
Journey into the Middle-European Baroque

There is an interview by Tripla Concordia in the January 2006 issue of the Italian magazine ClassicCD, which is on sale with an attached CD dedicated to the Sonatas for Recorder and Basso Continuo by G. Ph. Telemann, from the Bach/Telemann CD C 9701/2 released by the Spanish label Cantus.
On Stradivarius (STR 11007) the group has just released a new CD dedicated to the sonatas for recorder of another outstanding figure of the Baroque, G. F. Handel.

Download   Audio file: G.Ph. Telemann Sonata for recorder, obbligato harpsichord and basso continuo in Bflat major, IV - Vivace. Lorenzo Cavasanti (recorder), Sergio Ciomei (1st harpsichord), Caroline Boersma (cello), Mario Martinoli (2nd harpsichord). telemannIV.mp3 [1’27”, 1,37 Mb]
In the studio of Valter Neri in Montevarchi, the the three original members of Tripla Concordia (Cavasanti - Ciomei - Boersma) have recently recorded, in February, a programme focused on the development of the Italian Sonata (ranging from Castello, Fontana, Selma, Mealli, to Corelli, Dall'Abaco, Domenico Scarlatti and Veracini), which it has already performed in a successful series of concerts.
At the same time Lorenzo Cavasanti, together with the German recorder player Dorothee Oberlinger, recorded a set of sonatas for two recorders without accompaniment by Telemann, which shed a new light on some typically baroque features but also on the pre-Sturm aspects of the German composer - a fresh and very individual reading.

Tripla Concordia Orchestra
  Apart these 'chamber' activities, the ensemble is also presenting itself as classic chamber orchestra. Planned for next December is a series of concerts devoted to the music of Mozart (comprising the Concerto for Flute and Harp, the Concerto in A major for Violin, and the Symphony no. 29, K.201).
The immediate future sees Lorenzo Cavasanti and Sergio Ciomei again in Milan, together with flautist (and leader of Giardino Armonico) Giovanni Antonini and cellist Antonio Fantinuoli. They are to give a concert for the 60th season of
Musica e Poesia a S. Maurizio, one of Italy's most important and long-established series of early music concerts. The programme represents a    
journey through 17th and 18th century France, Italy and Germany, by this extraordinary and newly-formed quartet of artists and friends, and is designed to illustrate the characteristically different timbres of the recorder and the transverse flute. (Coro di San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore, 31 maggio 2006, ore 21, Info: Società del Quartetto, T. 02.795393 e www.quartettomilano.it).
