About

Despite an impressive track record of Italian violin music, Enrico Gatti has only recently turned to the question of
recording Vivaldi. His first offering reflects the younger Vivaldi from his Venetian years in a selection of Sonatas from the Op. 2 printed collection.
 
If Vivaldi was to be later known as the 'father of the violin concerto' in his Mantuan years these Sonatas are fruits of his time in Venice. To make this new recording Gatti has used an Amati violin from 1652 (an instrument that was 57-years old when the music was printed), believing that it provided a suitably bright sound.
