Weaving their magic: Hugo Ticciati and O/Modernt's From the ground up: the chaconne
From the ground up: the chaconne - Bach, Pellegrini, Piccinini, Purcell, Bogdanovic, Marmen; O Modernt, Hugo Ticciati, Sam West; Signum Classics Reviewed by Robert Hugill on 2 July 2019 Star rating: 5.0 (★★★★★) A journey through the chaconne, with an eclectic mix of old and new woven into a single magical wholeHugo Ticciati and O/Modernt's recordings are never straight-forward and whilst From the ground up: the Chaconne on Signum Classics takes the chaconne as its basis, exploring the music's dance origins alongside Bach's 'Chaconne' for the Partita in D minor for solo violin and more recent work by Dusan Bogdanovic, there is much else besides.
