Another installment in Philips's Set Your Life to Music series (which has included Mozart for Your Mind, Baroque at Bathtime, and Rachmaninoff for Romance, among others), Vivaldi for Valentines is loosely built around the aura of romance that Venice continues to evoke. Vivaldi captured it for all time in his music, inspired by the often melancholy beauty of his native city, one that has been known through the ages as La Serenissima. Along with such ultrafamiliar pieces as the "Winter" largo movement from The Four Seasons (in which the violin sighs a rapturous melody against sounds imitating a crackling, cozy fire) and the Largo of the Guitar Concerto in D--Vivaldi's slow movements, with all their gentle dreaminess, being given the limelight in this compilation--are many gems you've likely not heard before. The list of performers and approaches is too expansive even to mention but predominantly features performances by I Musici. It's hard to believe that Vivaldi's music, having sunk into oblivion, resurfaced again only a few decades ago. This is a pleasant compilation that makes a perfect entrée if you'd like to learn more about classical music--and Vivaldi in particular--than The Four Season. And, as for setting a romantic mood, this will give your mojo all the help it needs. --Thomas May

5 out of 5 stars More of Vivaldi's great music........2001-08-24

When it comes to Vivaldi's works, the majority of people usually tend to associate him solely with composing the Four Seasons. However, this particular cd will introduce classical music lovers to other music that he composed for various stringed instruments, including the violin and cello. It does include a section from Winter of the Four Seasons, but the rest is other music that some may not be too familiar with. For a low price, you'll be getting a great selection of music.

5 out of 5 stars Just great!.......2000-07-10

I don't really know a lot about classical music even though I listen to a lot of it. All I can say is that every piece on this collection evokes a tremendous amount of peace and happy emotion. I listen to it in my office, and that in combination with my new fountain.... better than Prozac. My favorite piece is "Concerto for Guitar in D major: Largo" (sample #2 above). Highly recommend!

5 out of 5 stars Heard "Four Seasons"? Want more? GET THIS!.......1999-03-16

Almost everyone knows Vivaldi's "Four Seasons". If you love that gorgeous piece of music, than I say your next purchase should be this! It is a gorgeous collecton of string quartets along with flutes and very impressive classical guitar. I put it on whenever I need to be taken away from this world, or when I need some artistic inspiration.

5 out of 5 stars Vivaldi: Complete Recorder Concertos ~ Istvan Hartenstein.......2005-06-01

The recorder is a very misunderstood instrument. Many people see it as an instrument for small children and this could be no further from the truth. Vivaldi shows with his compositions for the recorder that it is very beautifull instrument in its own right and should not be dismissed based on olde ideas. I love this kind of music and it is very nice indeed to listen to and Vivaldi has cretaed some amazing recorder music that should be listened to people that love classical music and great music in general.

You say your favorite Vivaldi passage is the Four Seasons summer storm? Well, here's a disc for you. Fabio Biondi and the Europa Galante (known to many for their bestselling Seasons disc) focus on concerti con titoli, the titled concertos the Red Priest wrote that are full of inventive drama and expression. Writing for his student orchestra, the composer employed plenty of creativity in his instrumentation, and, as evidenced on a few tracks here, he wasn't beyond recycling motifs from his older works. But just give this exciting disc a listen. The Concerto funebre (RV 579) is sweet, yet somber; the six-movement La notte (RV 439) is weird and ominous; and the stormy seas of La tempesta di mare really come alive in Europa Galante's hands. Biondi and his ensemble never try to steal the show from these works; they let the music speak for itself. Some period-instrument groups sound a little ragged, but this one gets it just right and delivers a knockout, taut performance. A great disc for Baroque lovers. --Jason Verlinde

5 out of 5 stars HOT RECORDING.......2006-03-27

It has been said that Vivaldi's Violin Concerti can give one the impression that he wrote the same concerto about a 1000 times. Perhaps the reason for the aforesaid impression is that there are many recordings and/or performances that exhibit little imagination in the programming of the concertos or in the playing of same. In other words, they border on being rather boring with a feeling of repeativeness. This recording is the exception. Fabio Biondi and the Europa Galante in this recording perform these concertos in a "hot" and most exciting manner that made me feel that I was hearing them for the very first time. I know that the programming of the disc also had a lot to do with me not getting bored while listening to this recording. Fabio Biondi and the Europa Galante are an "original" instrumental group without even a hint of the astringency usually associated with "original" instruments. Their playing is rather sweet in the slow movements as it is certainly very vigorous in the fast movements with no "mouth puckering" bite! I really loved the concerto for two cellos; it is very richly textured and sonorous; plus Europa Galante plays it splendidly.

Believe me, I found this Vivaldi recording, for once, to be very exciting and a most enjoyable listening experience!

If you want to hear a "hot" recording of some Vivaldi at his best, buy this disc.

5 out of 5 stars lively vivaldi.......2005-11-09

I'm not a baroque expert as some of the other reviewers seem to be. I do listen to a lot of music and have heard much Vivaldi -- most frequently the Four Seasons warhorse from Opus 8. This Vivaldi is quite enjoyable, very bright and very well played, energetic and well-recorded. My personal favorite was the last work for two cellos. The slow movement is absolutely beautiful. RV 270 is also quite excellent. This is a worthwhile purchase. Sometimes when period groups play his music Vivaldi sounds mummified but not here. Recommended.

4 out of 5 stars Do you really like waiting ? Aimez-vous attendre"l'eco" ?.......2003-02-22

I know Biondi and Europa Galante since they were playing on the label Opus 111. I am a great fan of Europa galante. But...I was quite disappointed when I heard this CD. Mainly because I did not find Biondi the arrogant. But he can't certainly not played like "a little electric tornado" in the "Concerto funebre". It's the same in Concerto "Per eco in lontano". I particularly hate this music with this boring echo;the same music which is repeated from " outer space". The Concerto "Il riposo.."is perfect to relax with the dog. "L'inquietude" is outstanding. Even better than the Carmignola version on Divox Antiqua (1995). "La tempesta di mare" and La Notte" are enough strange and captivating to be considered as interesting performances. But they not be compared with the fabulous interpretation of Jean-Christophe Spinosi (Ensemble Matheus-2002-Label Naive). Finally the "Concerto for 2 cellos and orchestra" has already been recorded in 1993 by Europa Galante(album "Vivaldi Concerti" (Vol.22. Opus 111)). So no great surprise for me there. A very good CD to someone who want to discover Vivaldi with talentuous musicians.

5 out of 5 stars Biondi rulez..........2002-01-11

I know I have been very negative in my other reviews of Biondi-cds. Actually, I almost take it back!
He is NOT an opera-conductor, period. But he IS a brilliant violinist! His playing in the Vivaldi concertos is just outstanding. The orchestra is also amazing. I really recommends this set of concertos to anyone not familiar with the Biondi legacy!

5 out of 5 stars Vibrant Vivaldi.......2001-06-12

Vivaldi is played with excitement by Europa Galante, a string and woodwind orchestra 13 strong here. Some collections of Vivaldi concertos can sound a bit monotonous, but not this carefully selected group of emotively titled short pieces. Instrumentation is varied, the playing is enthusiastic and energetic as needed, and the strings really bite in the staccato "Sea Tempest," the waves slapping hard on the boat. The 6-movement "Night" is remarkably eerie and ghostly, particularly if you can cleanse your ears of all the chromatic pieces written since and try to listen with 18th century expectations. RV 234 is full of unsettling "Apprehension" no matter what later music you have heard, displaying a harried and rapidly modulated sense of harmonic uncertainty. The brief notes with the CD are a slightly strange mixture of English and untranslated Italiano. Fresh and well worth listening closely.

4 out of 5 stars A Little More Vivaldi Please.......2003-12-28

This budget-priced, slim paper-sleeved box set of various Vivaldi Concertos on the DG/Archiv label is quite excellent. Trevor Pinnock, directing from the harpsichord and organ, leads the English Concert (an all-star cast including Roy Goodman and Simon Standage, both of whom have graduated to the podium in recent years) in digital recordings from the late 80s. Since the track information is not abundantly clear above, allow me to mention that the first two discs of this set feature various Concertos, discs 3 & 4 contain the complete "L'estro amonico" op. 3, and CD5 six Flute Concertos op. 10. While I have never been a big fan of period-instrument recordings, there is nothing I can complain about here. The performances are warm, spirited, and thoroughly engaging, and certainly not academic. In fact, my only complaint is that there is not more to listen to. I popped this set in my 5-disc changer over the Holidays, and was disappointed to find it end so soon, being that four of the five CDs log in at the mid-50 minute mark and one only at a whopping 45:08. By my calculations, there is easily room for an additional two hours of material here! Alas, it is the only problem with an otherwise stellar set.

      5 out of 5 stars Excellent recording of Vivaldi.......2007-03-09

      This is an excellant recording. The music is very enjoyable, that can be played time and time again.

      4 out of 5 stars excellent modern instrument set of vivaldi, superb recording quality.......2006-02-27

      Firstly the suggestion that period instrument specialists are 'manic and irritating' is unfortunately ill-informed.

      That is not to take away the fact that these modern instrument Academy performances of major vivaldi concertos are (a) outstandingly good for modern instrument versions [which is a valid preference] and (b) superb value for money. If your preference is (as mine is generally) for the more rhythmic and colourful aspects of period performance then you may be disappointed, but then you wouldn't be buying a modern instrument set of Vivaldi anyway. As such they are beautiful and virtuosic performances.

      This 4 seasons has a top-notch reputation (not listened to it yet) but whereas the l'estro armonico and La Cetra recordings show the limitations of a modern chamber orchestra where a sprightlier period approach may overcome a certain overpolished sheen (beautiful in its own way), the La Stravaganza set is quite simply magnificent, with not a hint of stodginess, where the period/modern debate matters not one jot and sheer liberated musicianship takes hold. I have not heard Podger's new period recording of this, but this modern instrument performance blows away Pinnock's (now quite old) period instrument recording of the same work in my view.

      In all buy this set with confidence if you are happy to overlook the period performance movement and wish to discover Vivaldi played by top-notch interpreters, or buy this as part of (or the start of) a larger vivaldi collection, and add other interpretations from the likes of Biondi, Standage, et al, on period instruments and even Virtuosi di Roma (on modern instruments) and I Musici if that style floats your boat....


      5 out of 5 stars One-stop Vivaldi shopping.......2006-02-19

      Fifty dollars (35 with some dealers listed here) buys you an excellent seven disc collection of many of Vivaldi's favorite concertos. The recordings were made in the 1960s but the sound quality is excellent. The performances are "old-school," as someone would say, played on modern instruments and in a manner that doesn't reflect the revised "correct" view of how these works should be performed. That means the sound is smooth and lovely and the playing is not manic and irritating. Personally I find these long highly-regarded recordings to be charming and filled with character and the performances flawless without sounding sterile at all. Maybe it's not the way Vivaldi wanted them to sound but go ahead and prove that conclusively! I purchased this set not long ago and I have to admit that the magical recording of the Four Seasons contained within made me fall in love with the piece all over again--after ignoring it for nearly two decades. The rest of the set made me finally fall in love with Vivaldi's music.

      You'll encounter a lot of strong opinions on this kind of stuff. I'm ignoring most of it and going where my heart takes me on music like this--I don't want it to make me feel smug, I want it to make me smile.

      Next stop, Munchinger's Water Music and more of the extraordinary Bach Guild recordings which I cannot recommend enough.

      5 out of 5 stars Early Carmignola.......2001-01-20

      This is Carmignola before his (current) hey-day, prior to his association with Marcon's Venice Baroque Orchestra.

      Strangely enough, I prefer his early temperament. The CD is examplary of everything a modern baroque ensemble should be like -- there are the Europa Galante-like dynamic shifts so sudden you'd swear just a second ago you were listening to a largo, not an allegro; lean, aggressive violins competing with a loud and insistent basso continuo; and of course, a sparkling first violinist. Carmignola here, on this CD, essentially surpasses his current form, mostly because he's nail-biting less about going off-tune and more concerned with actually playing.

      But the biggest credit must go to the ensemble, the Sonatori de la Gioisa Marca. They are incredibly lithe and responsive to Vivaldi's nuances, without either the heavy-handedness that sometimes accompanies a Europa Galante interpretation or the trademark over-the-top aggression of an Il Giardino Armonico, or even the ghastly uniformity of his current troupe. True, the performances here may sometimes lack a certain pinch of refinement or elegance. But that's a miniscule reservation.

      The sound is very good, slightly favouring the first violinist, as is common, but the harpsichord is almost equally prominent -- a very wise move by whoever the engineers are.

          Album Description

          This is the third release from the British-based baroque chamber orchestra Fiori Musicali. The group plays on authentic instruments and has a 15-year history performing baroque music in England, often in beautiful historic homes. In its 21st season, Fiori Musicali has a strong presence in central England, a residency at the St. Ceciliatide International Festival of Music in London, and has toured abroad to the Early Music Festival in Madrid. Fiori Musicali offer music appreciation classes, and recently began a pilot project to establish an affiliated youth choir, Fiorosa.

          The featured artist is well-known recorder virtuoso Pamela Thorby, along with the ensemble's principal members. They present an elegant program of Baroque chamber concertos from 18th-century Venice.

          This release provides not so much a programme but rather a wordless aria illustrating a text, just as Vivaldi added poems to his masterpiece The Four Seasons. The solo parts are demanding technically and show dazzling displays of virtuosic writing.
