Vivaldi, Concerti da Camera

Vivaldi – Concerti da camera explores the extraordinary variety of Antonio Vivaldi’s chamber writing for winds, strings and continuo. Across seven works, the programme moves between tightly woven ensembles and more concertante writing, with the flute at the centre of changing combinations of oboe, violin and bassoon. The sequence includes Il Gardellino and La tempesta di mare, two works in which Vivaldi turns instrumental colour into vivid musical imagery. Giovanni Antonini performs on recorders and leads Il Giardino Armonico. At the NFM the concert is presented in the ORLEN Main Hall with the stage in reversed configuration.
