At the Bologna Festival on June 12 in concert in Bologna's Basilica di Santo Stefano will perform Fabiano Martignago and Angelica Selmo.
The two artists extract from their “musical treasure chest” a reasoned journey within a genre such as the sonata a due, which since the end of the 17th century has been a fertile ground for experimentation in which a new conception of musical style matures: two-part writing. Moving between original pieces and transcriptions, the two young performers, who are already established soloists, rely on the famous names of Telemann and Vivaldi, but also offer the rare music of two composer-executors who both landed, starting from Italy and Germany, in English musical life: Francesco Barsanti and Johann Ernst Galliard.
