Lanzetti / Ronco / Vozza - Early Romantic Cello [CD]

This selection of chamber compositions for the cello aims to reveal the gradual birth of the romantic idea of music in the middle of the historical period called Classicism. Although still partially formulated on the late eighteenth-century model, these works go beyond the usual aesthetic formulas of their time, showing the restlessness and curiosity for the new horizons that revolutionary thought had opened to the eyes of the European minds, in the footsteps of "sentiment" and above all of a new mythology which, as Friedrich von Schlegel wrote: "must be formed by the extreme depth of the spirit."
