The Locatelli Trio

Classical Chamber Ensemble

The Locatelli Trio is a chamber group that specializes in the performance of Baroque music with a particular focus on the works of Pietro Antonio Locatelli, an Italian composer and violinist of the Baroque era. The ensemble typically features instruments that were common during Locatelli's time, such as the harpsichord, baroque violin, and cello or viola da gamba. The trio has garnered attention for their historically informed performances, which aim to present music as it would have been heard during the composer's lifetime. They have recorded several albums that showcase Locatelli's compositions, including his chamber works and church sonatas. The group's dedication to authenticity in performance practice has contributed to a deeper appreciation of Locatelli's music and the Baroque repertoire in general.
