This interesting DVD shows the history of two great ltaIian musicians in the period of their Iives in which their activities took them to Vicenza, worldwide known as the "city of PalIadio". Biagio Marini - whose works constitute a cornerstone in the history of violin technique - was choirmaster of the Vicenza Cathedral from 1655, while Antonio Vivaldi in 1713 directed (and pIayed the part of the principaI violin) in Vicenza his pIay Ottone in ViIla and his oratorio La vittoria navaIe. The performance on period instruments takes us back to the atmosphere of the time in the splendid setting of PaIazzo Leoni Montanari, a masterpiece of Venetian late seventeenth century. |
