Quartetto Tamborini – Quartettino Giocoso

This work collects compositions by some authors of the cultivated music of the Nineteenth century in Piedmont. Drawing from this repertoire, the band re-proposes in a very original way the compositions transcribed for the most classic among the classic kinds of ensemble: the string quartet. Quartetto Tamborini is born from an idea by Bruno Raiteri, fiddler of La Ciapa Rusa.
