    Album information

    This is the debut solo release by versatile cellist Alison McGillivray who is joined by a trio of Baroque specialists exploring the music of Francesco Geminiani.

    Geminiani's Op. 5 mark the beginning of the change from gamba to cello. They are an intriguing and delicately balanced fusion of Italianate clarity and counterpoint and French lavishness of sonority and gesture. In the Op. 5 Cello Sonatas Geminiani succeeded in creating music that lives up to his own high expectations. 

    In addition McGillivray and guests (cembalist David McGuinness, continuo cellist Joseph Crouch and Baroque guitarist Eligio Quinteiro) perform some interesting and valuable bonuses taken from Geminiani's keyboard compositions. The Financial Times named McGillivray's eloquent Geminiani recording one of the 'Best Classical Recordings of 2005' for its "scholarship and style".
