strumento dimenticato per secoli, il cornetto non ha nulla da invidiare al più blasonato violino. Pare anzi che soprattutto a Venezia fosse lo strumento principe, prima che la peste del Seicento decimasse completamente i suoi più grandi virtuosi, venendo poi rimpiazzato dal più semplice violino.
Per me tutt'oggi, rappresenta uno degli strumenti dal timbro più bello, molto simile a quello della voce umana

Beautiful, thank you

Absolute magic. I am sure that the masters of the past would have approved wholeheartedly of your brilliant renditions of their works.

Outstanding and beautiful performance by David Brutti! Fontana is so underrated

[@SeicentoStravagante]

Thank you! Yes, totally underrated and for this reason we are gonna to perform it even more! As far as you enjoyed our video, kindly take a look to our album for cornetto & organ (harpsichord) released by BIS: music.th-cam.com/play/OLAK5uy_mBHRb6ucc2gM75DFSqi7G4QurhVX7GqNo.html

So damn good, good work my man!

I know just how fiendishly difficult it is to play the cornetto at this level, because I have tried to learn it. Great admiration for all the effort and practice this must have taken.

[@SeicentoStravagante]

Thank you for your words! Yes cornetto it's a very tricky instrument, but really expressive and with a beautiful repertoire. If you want to be updated on upcoming Seicento Stravagante's videos subscribe to our youtube channel. Big hug from Italy!
