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. From birth, he had fragile health and 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 understood how to exploit 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 performed for the Danish King Frederik IV and witness some of the most colorful, virtuoso, and irresistibly energetic music from the Baroque period.
