Francesco Zappa: Six Symphonies – Atalanta Fugiens & Vanni Moretto

Many will be familiar with Francesco Zappa as the album title of the legendary musician Frank Zappa. The title refers to the Italian composer and cellist Francesco Zappa, whose creative period stretched from 1763 to 1788. During this relatively short period, he managed to compose six symphonies in addition to other works, all of which can be heard on this CD. They were recorded by the Italian chamber music ensemble Atalanta Fugiens under Vanni Moretto, which is thus continuing its series of rare recordings from the “Archivio della Sinfonia milanese”.
