Giovanni Antonini is an acclaimed musician and conductor renowned for his expertise in period instrument performance and his profound impact on the interpretation of Classical and Baroque repertoire. Born in Milan, Italy, Antonini's journey in music began with studying the recorder and baroque transverse flute, quickly establishing himself as an artist of exceptional prowess and sensitivity. His career is marked by a strong emphasis on historical research and an expressive approach to music-making that respects the authentic styles of the periods from which the works originate.
Antonini is perhaps best known as the founder and artistic director of Il Giardino Armonico, a pioneering ensemble that emerged in the late 1980s, specializing in vibrant and dynamic performances of 17th- and 18th-century music. With a discography that spans over three decades, his work includes the ambitious "Haydn 2032" project, aiming to record all of Joseph Haydn's symphonies by the composer's 300th birthday. Release highlights such as "Haydn 2032, Vol. 14: L'impériale" and "Haydn 2032, Vol. 13: Horn Signal" showcase his deep connection to Haydn's oeuvre. Antonini's musical versatility is also reflected in recordings such as "Bach: Brandenburg Concertos, BWV 1046 - 1051" and his collaborations with mandolin virtuoso Avi Avital, exploring the works of Hummel and Paisiello among others. As an eminent figure in the world of early music, Giovanni Antonini's influence continues to resonate, fostering a renewed appreciation for the richness of historical music performance.
