About Rinaldo Alessandrini
Artist Biography
Conductor and harpsichordist Rinaldo Alessandrini is an innovative interpreter of Italian Baroque opera and instrumental music. As the director of his own ensemble, Concerto Italiano, he has brought dramatic, opera-influenced readings to a variety of Baroque works from Italy and beyond. Alessandrini also played the organ, and his first recording, a performance of Girolamo Frescobaldi's Fiori Musicali collection, was on that instrument. In 1992, he issued a collection of Alessandro Scarlatti's keyboard music. He has recorded prolifically, issuing as many as four albums a year in the 2010s. In 2022, he and Concerto Italiano released a new recording of Vivaldi's popular 12 Concertos, Op. 3, titled L'estro armonico. By that time, Alessandrini's recording catalog included well over 125 items.
