Concerti Per Violino Vii 'per Il Castello'
A. Vivaldi
This sixty-second volume of the epic Vivaldi Edition is also the seventh volume of the flamboyant Red Priest's violin concertos. Here we see the ageing com-poser more full of life than ever, adapting to the de-mands of the galant style in vogue since 1725, while losing nothing of his verve and imagination. These are the sole surviving concertos of the fifteen that, during his fateful last year in Viennese exile, Vivaldi sold for a pitifully small sum to Count Vinciguerra Tommaso Collalto, a Venetian nobleman then resid-ing in his castle at Brtnice, Moravia (the 'castello' of this volume's title). With solo writing of extreme refinement, these works fully exploit the whole range of violinistic expression and phrasing, displaying a wealth of ornamentation and a lavishly inventive sense of lyrical cantabile virtuosity.
