The BaRock Experience - Masterpieces for cello and organ

“The recording of this CD I can describe as one of my most beautiful and most exciting musical experiences. I always enjoy playing with my sister Jelena, but this time our bonding rose to an even higher level of empathy, and it became a search for new and adventurous artistic expression.“ Inspiration, imagination and improvisational ideas led both musicians to new musical lines that Vivaldi and Barrière might have use. The continuo got more autonomy in the musical interaction. The French cellist and composer Jean-Baptiste Barrière started his career as a privileges by King Louis XV at Fontainebleau. To his Majesty he wrote several sonatas which are still known for their sensitivity and fine tonality, their emotional resonance and deep sonority. Three books of chamber music by Antonio Vivaldi present exquisite sonatas with fine melodies and expressive harmonies. Jelena and Ljerka Ocic present three of those which both loved most.
