The lutenist of Giardino Armonico is Luca Pianca (from Italian
Switzerland). He is an amazing lutenist and more interesting he is an
declared non-historical (his archlute is constructed more like a guitar
and he use huge tensions to strings).

Dear lutenists,
in one Finnish tv-channel (Teema) there were just two interesting
programs - lute included:
[1]Philippe Jaroussky was singing Caldara with Concerto Koeln and
then[2] Cecilia Bartoli sang castrati arias with Giardino
Harmonico.
In Concerto Koeln there was a bald theorbo player. Played well. With
Giardiano there was an archlute player with quite small instrument.
Does anyone happen to know, who these guys are? The archlutenist was
perhaps Contini?
Not important at all, but I must say Cecilia was much more masculine
in
her castrati arias than Philippe in Caldara... ;-)
