A violinist himself, He represented a new harmonic language and a modern compositional style and founded the classicism in playing the violin. We will perform more of his works in the folowing albums.

By performing three partitas of his works,"Sol Music" illustrates the effective role of this famous composer in the development and transformation of this musical Form . Vitali died in Modena in 1692. In comparison to Corelli,Vitali's compositions have many different qualities of color and texture.

Rachmaninoff was an admirer of Tchaikovsky and faithfully believed in melody. A special richness and purity is remarkable in his works. His music is exciting, intimate and full of emotions.
