Concerto In G By Vivaldi Arr. Stephen Chin

Vivaldi was a prolific composer who created an impressive catalogue of concertos for a vast array of instruments. The piece, originally composed for mandolin and strings, showcases his virtuosity in crafting complex, ornate figurations. Although some of these figurations have been slightly adapted, the fundamental harmonic and formal structures of the composition remain unaffected.

The music features a delightful sense of dialogue between different sections of the orchestra as they share the melodic line, creating a rich and dynamic texture. Furthermore, players will relish the opportunity to perform the customary Baroque string crossings, which require precision and skill, as well as the familiar harmonic progressions that underpin the music. Overall, the piece exudes an effervescent energy that is characteristic of Vivaldi's style and will undoubtedly captivate both performers and listeners alike.
