About

The Swiss recorder player Isaac Makhdoomi enchants his audience with his great virtuosity and stylistic versatility. Together with the Ensemble Piccante, which consists of early music specialists from the Basel music scene, he takes us on a fiery virtuoso sound journey to the Venice of the "Prete rosso" Antonio Vivaldi. Like hardly any other composer of his time, Vivaldi helped the recorder and its variants to musical heights with his compositions. Stupendously virtuoso runs alternate with beautiful cantilenas.

Reviews

Here is a release which throws open a window on some of the most technically accomplished recorder playing that has come my way...Fast movements are articulated with breathtaking definition, while the lyricism of the slower ones is affectionately understood.
