Merry Christmas, my friends!
This is one of my favorite concerti grosso, my favorite Baroque pieces, and my favorite piece for strings ensemble. Corelli plays an extremely important role in contemporary violin technique, his Concerti Grosso also has an influence on nowadays orchestration.
This piece is originally written for 2 solo violins, 1 solo cello, and an strings orchestra with basso continuo. This video is my own arrangement for 5 celli and one double bass. Still far from perfect I know, sorry about the poor quality of intonation and unstable tempo :P This video is also the first video I upload after moving to Tainan. My life changes a lot this year, so there's not that much time to pratice. If I got more time, I will upload more orchestral excerpt projects as promised.
2022 is really not a good year. Many things happened, but even so, we're still living safe and sound. I have nothing but this video to express my gratitude to all the people I have ever met; wish you a Merry Christmas and a Peaceful 2023.
