Giovanni Valentini (ca. 1582-1649)
One of the nicest things about putting together a program is that very often you stumble upon amazing music you didn’t know at all. We were looking into composers close to Locatelli and checking some Giuseppe Valentini’s stuff (who appeared to be his teacher) when our cembalist Jia got drawn towards the “wrong” Valentini: Giovanni.
As she said, “kinda wild”!
And on top of that, the Acronym Ensemble sounds great.
