Il Furibondo String Trio
Biography
The string trio Il Furibondo was founded in 2011 by violinist Liana Mosca, violist Gianni de Rosa and cellist Marcello Scandelli.
The three musicians collaborate regularly with legendary early music ensembles such as “Il Giardino Armonico” and “Le Concert des Nations”. Their repertoire ranges from the Baroque (played on period instruments) to the music of the first half of the 20th century. “Furibondo” was the term used by Giuseppe Tartini to describe the performance style of the great violinist Francesco Geminiani. From the start, Il Furibondo gained recognition for its outstanding level of musical interpretation, including its recording of Bach’s Fugues transcribed by Mozart, for the recording label Stradivarius. Since then, the trio has been active in radio and concert performances throughout Italy and Europe, including Le Settimane Musicali (Merano), Ceresio Estate (Lugano), Milano ArteMusica, Paesaggi Musicali Toscani and Rencontres Internationales Harmoniques in Geneva.
