For years the vitality and energy of Jean-Christophe Spinosi’s
music-making with his Ensemble Matheus have been conquering the
international concert stages, and they have found an ideal partner in
the young French cellist Jérôme Pernoo. His playing is both virtuoso and
sensitive, and together they will perform two rarely heard solo
concertos from the Neapolitan School at the Whitsun Festival 2011. Other
works on the programme include pieces from Vivaldi’s varied œuvre, and
one of the Concerti grossi created by the English composer Charles
Avison based on harpsichord sonatas composed by Domenico Scarlatti, a
native of Naples.
