about

For his new album Soave e virtuoso, Alexis Kossenko went on the trail of rare scores from the baroque era. Partitions that remind us that the Italian repertory, if it gives pride of place to the the violin and the voice, nevertheless doesn’t forget wind instruments. At the head of his ensemble Les Ambassadeurs, the conductor and flutist Alexis Kossenko performs delightly concertos by Tartini, Vivaldi and Sammartini. Sometimes voluptuous, sometimes dreadfully acrobatic, these scores require technique and sensitivity from the soloist. With a jubilant virtuosity, at the service of expressiveness, Alexis Kossenko, multi-skilled musician as at ease with flute as with recorder, brings life in colors to the works of the three Italian composers.


Pour son nouveau disque Soave e virtuoso, Alexis Kossenko est parti sur les traces de partitions rares de l’ère baroque. Des partitions qui nous rappellent que le répertoire italien, s’il fait la part belle au violon et à la voix, n’en a pas moins choyé les instruments à vent. À la tête de son ensemble Les Ambassadeurs, le chef et flûtiste Alexis Kossenko interprète avec régal des concertos tout en contrastes de Tartini, Vivaldi et Sammartini. Tantôt voluptueuses, tantôt redoutablement acrobatiques, ces partitions exigent du soliste technique et sensibilité. Avec une virtuosité jubilatoire, jamais gratuite mais au service de l’expressivité, Alexis Kossenko, aussi à l’aise à la flûte traversière qu’à la flûte à bec, redonne vie en couleurs aux oeuvres des trois compositeurs italiens.
