About

After a programme of German overtures, the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin transports us to the Venice of the 'red-haired priest'. Vivaldi gives pride of place to virtuosity: the concerto grosso tends to be supplanted by solo instrumentalists - as is clearly demonstrated by all the works presented on this CD.
Double concertos alternate with solo or ripieno concertos. A feast of sumptuous music-making!
