For her 24th recording for Cedille Records, violinist Rachel Barton Pine joins forces with period instrument specialists David Schrader, John Mark Rozendaal, and Brandon Acker to record Arcangelo Corelli’s seminal set of 12 Violin Sonatas, Op. 5.
Created for the month of Halloween, a playlist of over 50 tracks from the Cedille catalog that are spooky, scary, eerie, demonic, sardonic, grotesque, and/or just plain weird — plus one piece that actually is Halloween-themed: Chicago composer Leo Sowerby‘s “Theme in Yellow” (yellow = pumpkins).
