Nicola Porpora (16861768) was one of the most important and successful composers of the Neapolitan School in Italy. His fame was widespread as he worked in the European capitals London, Dresden and Vienna, where his works were successfully staged. Porpora was also a singer and teacher, which explains the strong vocal quality of his instrumental works. The 6 Cello Sonatas recorded on this CD try to emulate the vox humana, expressing the human emotions through instrumental virtuosity and phrasing.

With a disc of Giovanni Battista Costanzi's cello sonatas behind him for Glossa, Giovanni Sollima demonstrates further the melodic inventiveness and harmonic liberties to which Costanzi was given, together with a virtuoso s capacity to relish the technical demands imposed by a Roman musician who was clearly also a star player on the instrument himself. Together with the Arianna Art Ensemble, Sollima has recorded five sinfonias for cello and continuo, and a sonata for two cellos where he is joined once again by Monika Leskovar.
