It is said that Vivaldi composed the same concert 500 times. We’ve decided to check it out and we are playing cello, bassoon and violin concertos, as well as concertos on various cast and – to add some contrast – two sinfonias “Al Santo Sepolcro”. (…)
The concerts are virtuosity, energy, rhythm, melodiousness. We can play them endlessly even if the oeuvre of the Red Priest is full of repetitions and quotes from himself.
All the stars look similar while looking from the Earth. Let’s experience Vivaldi concertos at close range together. (Marcin Świątkiewicz)
