Cazzati, Capriccio sopra sette note | Tafelmusik

In this recording, hear Maurizio Cazzati's Capriccio sopra sette note, as performed by Tafelmusik. In 1657, Maurizio Cazzati was appointed director of music at the Basilica of San Petronio in Bologna, ushering in a golden period for music in that city. He instituted a permanent instrumental ensemble to supplement the excellent choral music at the church, with music in the new genres of concerto and sonata. The “sette note” referred to in the title of this lively Capriccio are the seven notes of the popular ciaccona bass line: Cazzati repeats them 82 times, varying the violin parts above the bass. Tafelmusik adds some 40 more repetitions midway, with variations improvised by bass players (harpsichord, gamba, lute), who are otherwise relegated to the simple bass line and use this as an opportunity to steal the limelight. (As a point of comparison, the ground bass of the now ubiquitous Pachelbel Canon is only played 28 times, unless the bride is late!) This performance was originally performed by members of Tafelmusik as part of Il Seicento: a program that explores the evolution of Italian instrumental music written in the first half of the 17th century. Featuring: Elisa Citterio & Patricia Ahern, violin Felix Deak, viola da gamba Lucas Harris, guitar Christopher Bagan, harpsichord Learn more about Tafelmusik at the links below.
