Not only is Isabelle Faust one of the greatest violinists of our age (and perhaps all ages), but she is also blessed with a powerful curiosity, seemingly always on the lookout for composers and repertoire off the beaten track, as a glance at her discography will show. This collection of compositions by the eccentric genius Pietro Antonio Locatelli, is a splendid illustration of Faust's adventuresome repertoire. Locatelli's violin works run the gamut, from staggering virtuosity, exemplified here by his Concerto for Violin in A, Op. 3, No. 11, where the composer stretches the capabilities of both violin and violinist, to the achingly beautiful and tender Concerto Grosso in E-Flat, Il pianto d'Arianna, Op. 7, No. 6. Faust is easily up to all the challenges posed: the jaw-dropping difficulties of the Concerto in A—including finger-busting double stops and high notes (16th position!) played just a fraction of an inch from the bridge—as well as the gorgeous lyricism of Il pianto d'Arianna. Also on this release are other works by Locatelli that are all striking in their originality and played with equal aplomb by Faust and sensitively accompanied by Giovanni Antonini and his forces. © Anthony Fountain/Qobuz
