Sandro Volta (lute)

The historical significance of Ottaviano Petrucci (1466-1538) lies in the fact that he was the first to print a book of polyphony with movable type, and he was one of the first to print sheet music using the same technique. His first editions of Intavolature di Liuto (lute tablatures) included works by Francesco Spinacino, Joan Dalza and Franciscus Bossinensis, all featured on this CD.

In his Recercars Spinacino achieves a remarkable variety in the handling of the musical form, skilfully incorporating dance motifs in the arrangement of the vocal lines.

Sandro Volta is a highly regarded lute and guitar player, specialising in the performance of Renaissance and Baroque works for his instrument. In 1994 he won the prestigious Grand Prix du Disque. His recordings for Brilliant Classics include works by Marco dall’Aquila and Francesco da Milano, highly praised in the musical press: “played with great mastery and expression” (Philippe Zanoly).
