Vivaldi, Hardback Book

Vivaldi Hardback

Edited by Michael Talbot

Part of the The Baroque Composers series

Hardback

Description

Since 1978, the 300th anniversary of Vivaldi's death, there has been an explosion of serious writing about his music, life and times.

Much of this has taken the form of articles published in academic journals or conference proceedings, some of which are not easy to obtain.

The twenty-two articles selected by Michael Talbot for this volume form a representative selection of the best writing on Vivaldi from the last 30 years, featuring such major figures in Vivaldi research as Reinhard Strohm, Paul Everett, Gastone Vio and Federico Maria Sardelli.

Aspects covered include biography, Venetian cultural history, manuscript studies, genre studies and musical analysis.

The intention is to serve as a 'first port of call' for those wishing to learn more about Vivaldi or to refresh their existing knowledge.

An introduction by Michael Talbot reviews the state of Vivaldi scholarship past and present and comments on the significance of the articles.
