Lute concerti by Silvius Leopold Weiss (1687-1750), recorded by Tempesta Di Mare Philadelphia Baroque Orchestra with solo lutenist Richard Stone. Recorded in 2002 in the Church of Santa Maria Maddelena de Pazzi, Philadelphia, and released on the Chaconne division of Chandos Records in 2004, the premiere recordings on this disc were subject of much critical acclaim.

"Stone's playing is agile and confident, his sound round and full. These charactersistics are essential to project the instrument's small voice in a concerto. The players of Tempesta di Mare supply a lovely, understated accompaniment that is historically informed but without any ornamental gimmickry." – American Record Review
