«However, let's highlight everything that Amandine Beyer's new version truly brings to the table: a personal touch, a remarkable appropriation, as it focuses less on the (narcissistic) interpretation of the musicians and the solo violin than on the poetic freedom—that realm of all possibilities—of a score with the air of a manifesto. A score that is, moreover, highly original, singular, a true aesthetic monument of Venetian sensibility from the 1720s (although composed in Mantua). The genius of the Incogniti lies in never diverting the work for the sake of egocentric demonstration: chiseled, admirably restrained, modulating each accent with evident mastery, the instrumentalists allow us to hear what makes Vivaldi incomparable in terms of nuance, audacity, imagination, and constant renewal of inspiration.»
