Thanks to him this instrument became popular and technically refined as it is nowadays. The aim of this recording is to reproduce the tinkling sonorities of these compositions. In order to obtain thoroughly this particular natural sonority, we have decided to \"capture\" the natural reverberations of the environment without ignoring the sound of each single instrument, so that the phrasing is intelligible. We have played an original mandolin built in 1764 and an harpsichord copy of an Italian harpsichord of 18th century. We have chosen to play continuo only with harpsichord considering that these two instruments have a similar way to produce sound. This is the first complete recording of all the sonatas for mandolin by Giovanni Battista Gervasio and the first absolute world recording.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Sonata per Camera di mand. è Basso in Re maggioe (Gimo 144)~Allegro maestoso \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Sonata per Camera di mand. è Basso in Re maggioe (Gimo 144)~Largo Pizzicato \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Sonata per Camera di mand. è Basso in Re maggioe (Gimo 144)~Allegro assay \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Sonata a mandolino solo e Basso in Do maggiore (Gimo 141 - L 2767)~Allegro \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Sonata a mandolino solo e Basso in Do maggiore (Gimo 141 - L 2767)~Largo amoroso \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Sonata a mandolino solo e Basso in Do maggiore (Gimo 141 - L 2767)~Allegro \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Sonata Per Mandolino solo, e Basso in Re maggiore (L 2768)~Allegro \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Sonata Per Mandolino solo, e Basso in Re maggiore (L 2768)~Largo amoroso \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Sonata Per Mandolino solo, e Basso in Re maggiore (L 2768)~Taice alla tedesca \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Sonata per Mandolino e Basso per Divertimento e Studio Cammarale Di Sua Altezza Reale La Principessa Erditaria di tutte le Prussie in Re Maggiore (ms. 2082)~Allegro a suo comodo \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Sonata per Mandolino e Basso per Divertimento e Studio Cammarale Di Sua Altezza Reale La Principessa Erditaria di tutte le Prussie in Re Maggiore (ms. 2082)~Minuetto al gusto italiano \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Sonata per Mandolino e Basso per Divertimento e Studio Cammarale Di Sua Altezza Reale La Principessa Erditaria di tutte le Prussie in Re Maggiore (ms. 2082)~Gavotta allegretto gustoso \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Sonata Per Camera di Mandolino, e Basso per divertimento del ecce: Sig.
