MUSIC
Venetian maestro Vivaldi composed more than five hundred concerti.
Virtuoso Fritz Kreisler adapted the music of the past (eg. Pugnani)
when he composed pieces for his recitals. Tartini helped develop
acoustic theory and the virtuoso violin concerto. Boccherini's
“Fandango” is from his guitar quintet. Cimarosa was
court maestro in St. Petersburg and Vienna. “La campanella”
(The Little Bell), the final movement of Paganini's Violin Concerto
#2 in B minor, was borrowed by Liszt in 1851 for his “Grand
Paganini Etudes”.
ARTISTS
The Interpreti Veneziani perform over 300 concerts a year at
Vivaldi’s old church, San Vidal, in Venice. They’ll
bring us the romanticism of Venice and the shimmering beauty of
Italian baroque string concerti, with youthful exuberance and
all-Italian brio.
