Capriccio

Born in Amsterdam, Schwindl (1737–1786) was once a celebrated virtuoso violinist whose music echoed along the Rhine. He blended the dramatic fire of the German Mannheim School with a charming, rustic folk style that captivated his contemporaries. In this new release, ECHO Klassik winner Werner Ehrhardt and l'arte del mondo rescue Schwindl from obscurity. Playing with breathtaking historical precision, they deliver a brilliant, energetic reading of his 31 surviving symphonies and the delightful La Pastorale.
