For nearly 20 years, the group has mixed rigorous musicological research with astonishing technique to shed new light onto 17th- and 18th-century music.<\/p>\n<p>For their newest album, Gli Incogniti explores the Italian influences on Johann Sebastian Bach. Titled \u201cBach from Italy,\u201d the two-disc set pairs six of Bach\u2019s concertos, including three of his Brandenburg Concertos, with music by three Italian contemporaries he admired: Antonio Vivaldi, plus the brothers Alessandro and Benedetto Marcello.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Brandenburg Concerto No. 4 in G Major, BWV 1049: I.

Instead, he painstakingly copied whatever Italian scores he could get his hands on, note by note, to learn what made them work. This included Vivaldi\u2019s famous concerto for four violins, as well as an obscure oboe concerto by Alessandro Marcello that Bach made famous through his own arrangement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All of the pieces receive lean and riveting performances from Gli Incogniti, with exemplary solo work from virtually everyone in the ensemble.
