Trio Settecento, the "superlative Chicago-based early music ensemble" (Gramophone), presents Italian Baroque composer Francesco Maria Veracini's monumental Opus 2 Sonate Accademiche for violin and continuo. It's a cosmopolitan collection of 12 sonatas of breathtaking scope and pan-European influences - a set of sonatas unlike any other of the era. One of the greatest violin virtuosos of his era who loved entertaining and dazzling audiences with his pyrotechnical playing, Veracini's SonateAccedemiche is both homage to his fellow-countryman Arcangelo Corelli and an original masterpiece in it's own right. Billboard chart-topping violinist Rachel Barton Pine, "one of the rare mainstream performers with a total grasp of Baroque style and embellishment" (Fanfare) is joined by her colleagues in Trio Settecento, cellist John Mark Rozendaal and harpsichordist David Schrader. Trio Settecento has cultivated fans across North America through appearances at prestigious concert series, festivals, and venues, which frequently include the music of Veracini.
