Viva Vivaldi

Viva Vivaldi

Concerto Copenhagen brings to life the music that made Vivaldi famous.

From Venice, to Denmark, and to the rest of the world

The composer Antonio Vivaldi was born in Venice and spent most of his life there. From birth, he had been in poor health, and he traveled reluctantly and only with great difficulty. But his music traveled far and wide. From Dresden and Vienna to Amsterdam, London, and even Copenhagen, his works were performed, admired, and published. Vivaldi knew how to leverage Venice’s status as one of Europe’s most important centers for trade, art, and music to spread his music and his name far beyond the city’s canals.

Concerto Copenhagen performs the music that made Vivaldi world-famous. Hear examples of the music he composed for King Frederick IV of Denmark and experience some of the most colorful, virtuosic, and irresistibly energetic music of the Baroque era.
