Violin virtuoso Giuseppe Tartini (1692–1770) was born in Piran and spent most of his life in Padua. The Slovenian trio on period instruments prepared a colourful selection of compositions with a marked influence of Istria and Friuli, including a newly discovered cello sonata, a harpsichord transcription of one of the violin concertos and the famous Devil’s Trill Sonata. Some works were played on an original violin that once belonged to Tartini and is now kept by the Maritime Museum »Sergej Mašera« Piran.
