| Have musically authentic productions become definitively disconnected from the art of stagecraft? That will have to remain an open question, as the answers, whether they come from those nostalgic for the bygone days of Atys or those who delight in the hip-hop, multi-ethnic paladins created by the likes of José Montalvo and Dominique Hervieux, too often tend toward oversimplified formulae. |

Fabio Bonizzoni performs regularly at concerts in Italy, France and Spain. Founder of La Risonanza, he was also a continuo player with the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra, under Ton Koopman; as well as with Jordi Savall’s Concert des Nations; Fabio Biondi’s Europa Galante and plays the harpsichord with the vocal ensemble La Venexiana.
The CD entitled 'Messa della Domenica' (by Schola Stirps Jesse and Fabio Bonizzoni) concentrates on Giovanni Salvatore's keyboard music, in particular the Responds included with one of three organ masses published in 1641. This recording is therefore of special value to those with a predilection for historic organs, but it is also recommended to anyone wishing to explore one of the more obscure corners of the Neapolitan Baroque.
Goldberg Magazine has now on sale 5 packs consisting of 1 magazine Nº 31 plus the 4 Star CD 'Messa della Domenica' so that those who are interested in keyboard music can learn more about one of the best performers of the international musical scene while they hear a special selection of keyboard music from the Neapolitan Baroque composed by Giovanni Salvatore, a prolific composer of both keyboard and vocal music that was much admired in his time. |

| In recent years, I’ve become so enamoured with the less familiar parts of Vivaldi’s oeuvre (especially the sacred vocal music) that I’ve tended to neglect the works for violin. |
