Notes and Editorial Reviews

This collection comprises several of Vivaldi’s chamber concertos, probably composed during the year-long stay of the crown-prince of Saxony-Poland in Venice in 1716. The prince brought with him several musicians to whom Vivaldi became close and for whom the concertos were written to be performed in the prince’s private apartments. The concertos, each containing three movements, showcase a variety of instruments including violin, flute, recorder, oboe and basso continuo.
