Ajoutée par magataganm, 05 Avr 2019 Antonio Lucio Vivaldi (1678 – 1741) was an Italian Baroque musical composer, virtuoso violinist, teacher, and priest. Born in Venice, the capital of the Venetian Republic, he is regarded as one of the greatest Baroque composers, and his influence during his lifetime was widespread across Europe. He composed many instrumental concertos, for the violin and a variety of other instruments, as well as sacred choral works and more than forty operas. His best-known work is a series of violin concertos known as the Four Seasons. La cetra (Op. 9) is a set of twelve violin concertos by Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1727. All of them are for violin solo, strings, and basso continuo, except No. 9 in B flat, which features two solo violins. The set was named after the cetra, a lyre-like instrument, and was dedicated to Emperor Charles VI. The works of Op. 9 were not so widely circulated as those of other recent volumes of Vivaldi's music. The popularity of the Four Seasons seems, in fact, to have the effect of blinding the public to all of Vivaldi's future prints. Three of the works were known in alternative versions.
