Edito de Alard: Fantasie per violino e orchestra su Opere di Guiseppe VerdiA violinist and conductor, Luigi De Filippi studied violin, piano and composition in Rome, showing an early interest in jazz and contemporary music. He subsequently appeared as concertmaster in such orchestras as the Rome Opera House, La Fenice Theatre in Venice, the London Mozart Players, the Flanders Orchestra in Antwerp.
Luigi has a keen interest in chamber music with period instruments: he is the violinist of the Voces Intimae piano trio, now much in demand for concert appearances and recordings. They have made three CDs with the Italian label Symphonia, all on period instruments, with the trios of Franz Schubert and Felix Mendelssohn Bartoldy, and a selection of 19th century Fantasias based on the operas of Vincenzo Bellini; Voces Intimae?s double CD of the complete trios of Johann Nepomuk Hummel, issued by Warner Classics, has won much praise all over the world, and has been elected ?CD of the year? for 2006 by BBC Radio 3. De Filippi also plays regularly with pianist Arthur Schoonderwoerd, both in duo and with the Ensemble Cristofori.
