The Pupils of Tartini

DOMENICO DALL'OGLIO (1700-1764): Sonata No. 8 for Violin and Continuo in C Minor, MICHELE STRATICO (1721?-1782): Sonata for Violin and Continuo in D, PIETRO NARDINI (1722-1793): Sonata for Violin and Continuo in D, ANTONIO NAZARI (?-after 1780): Sonata for Violin and Continuo in C, IGNAZIO GOBBI (1742?-1835): Sonata for Violin and Harpsichord in D.

Description: Just what the disc's title says, and there were a lot of Tartini pupils; this would be an attractive beginning to a series but it isn't. Stratico is quite Tartini-like in style while Nardini, of course, went his own way after the death of his teacher; Gobbi's sonata is quite Classical in style and even Haydnesque here and there.
