The violinistic technique demanded by Carbonelli is certainly advanced, but always placed at the service of musical expression. His handling of counterpoint is outstanding (and not only in the fugues), his thematic invention strong, and his command of musical form peerless. Not even Geminiani and Veracini, among his compatriots working in England, produced violin music of equal originality and expressiveness. |
