Jacchini - Cello Sonata in A Minor

[VelikyRostov9]

While I adore Johann Sebastian's sonatas for viola da gamba or conversely the pieces by Marais or Abel for a cello or gamba with continuo, it is the collected works of Jacchini I hold in highest esteem. The composer's use of his instrument combined with rhetorical gestures and episodes are perfectly written to underline and contrast the instrument's capabilities, thus creating a dark cinema much like Charles Baudelaire or Edgar Allan Poe. Please feel free to post more... Many thanks!

Keep sending me music like this Harmonico101. I am glad you are one of the people who I know on this site. I havent heard of Jacchini but perhaps Jack in the Box. I like what Classicalmusicreview said. This definitely gives the cello a great melodious sound, with great ranges in pitch

[ClassicalMusicReview]

I think that it unwittingly unfair to label Jacchini as a pioneer composer for the cello.While that is true,it makes his achievements sound like quaint novelties...when rather his rhetoric is throroughly substantive on a par with anyone other solo music ever composed by anyone bar none.

[HARMONICO101]

Ah, I think then I wil have to explore more of his music.

1;20 looks really like something Vivaldi could have written in his cello concerti. I wonder if he knew about Jacchini's works prior to composing his own concerti.
