i am an italian boy of 65 years old and i did find the barocco music for the first time after a big operation that save my life and change it for ever but now i am very happy to say all this....barocco was the only and the best expression about the music......the barocco time was not only about the music but was a style of life and a style to design building.......masterpieces of art and the same about barocco music.Now i have after 2 years hundreds of records in hi definition and i bought headphones at that level of precision and my life is changed....now i know what is the music and the ultimate style melted toughever......viva BAROCCO ....i am happy to see also many persons that come near barocco music and appreciate it this is a very important sign.have a nice day all you.

A gem, no doubt. The cello in the largo is spellbinding, and what a vitality in the "al tempo giusto". Thank you so much for sharing.

Nicola Porpora ? kaum zu glauben . . . . Entzückend ! Great !

A beautiful piece of music. I am grateful to Radio Swiss Classic and to Venice Classic Radio for introducing me to composers like Porpora. My local classical station, WFMT, now embraces things that have nothing to do with real classical music, and has become an afterthought in my home compared to these two wonderful stations. Thank you for sharing..

Thanks for the time-line to the tempi.

Very nice

Essa progressão no início é similar ao baixo utilizado no adagio de Albinoni; também utilizada por Vivaldi em um concerto.

bellissima esecuzione, solo troppo veloci il II MOV e il finale , TEMPO GIUSTO ; ma comunque eccellente!

L'argent. The money. Why is it about the money? Because it's always about the money.
