The \\\"Vivaldi Album\\\" is a series of operatic aria anthologies subdivided by vocal register, drawn from Antonio Vivaldi\\\'s surviving musical works for the theatre. Its sources include twenty-four musical dramas, three serenades and numerous individual arias. Each volume is made up of twelve pieces which vary in terms of affect and character, illustrating a wide range of styles and dramatic situations. They are arranged in chronological order, so as to provide an optimal cross-section of Vivaldi\\\'s entire career. |
