More than 150 years of Italian cello music, from just a lowly bass line
to the magnificence of Vivaldi and elegance of classical Boccherini. The
tantalising combinations of theorbo, harpsichord and cello contrast with
light-hearted
and schmaltzy mandolin sonatas and the famous Mozart
keyboard
variations on an exceedingly well known nursery rhyme.
