Chandos presents the first volume of Vivaldi's string concertos.

'Collegium Musicum 90's stylish performances, distinguished by characterful phrasing and nimble rhythmic vivacity, add the final sheen to this captivating disc.'
BBC Music Magazine (Pick of the Month, March 2000)

'…each [of the concertos] has a character that is unfailingly captured by the ensemble. Baroque playing of this calibre may make it difficult to settle for pale imitations elsewhere.'
The Times

'…Collegium Musicum 90 don't resort to fancy effects and tricks… they pick lively tempi, they shape phrases beautifully, they use a wind trio in three of the pieces for variety… and they lend just a hint of flair with little improvised ornaments here and there.'
