İş Sanat will welcome the world’s oldest active chamber group, I Musici, today at 8 p.m. Celebrating its 60th anniversary this year, I Musici has spread knowledge of eighteenth-century Italian music, especially Vivaldi and his “Four Seasons,” recording for Vivaldi’s masterpiece for only the second time ever in the 1950’s, and selling an astonishing 25 million copies of the work in various editions, making it one of the most famous pieces in the musical repertoire. They made the first classical music movie in the 1970s, and recorded the first classical music CD for Philips. I Musici consists of 12 soloists playing without a conductor, and constantly impresses audiences with its ability to achieve the full sonority of a string orchestra without sacrificing the clarity and the utter precision of a string quartet.
