Concerto Copenhagen brings to life the music that made Vivaldi famous.
From Venice, to Denmark and the rest of the world
The composer Antonio Vivaldi was born and spent most of his life in Venice. His health was fragile from birth 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 played, admired and published. Vivaldi knew how to use 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 its canals.
Concerto Copenhagen performs the music that made Vivaldi world famous. Hear examples of the music he performed for the Danish King Frederik IV and witness some of the most colorful, virtuosic and irresistibly energetic music of the Baroque era.
