The second movement is sweet and tender.

[@lautarosoto43]

Is abolutely amazing the Vivaldi's music

[@DelVivaldi]

So there is the sound of A major.

[@tjwhite1963]

My favorite key.

[@marcosPRATA918]

Allegro: a festa vivaldiana; Largo: anoitecer, últimos chamados dos pássaros; claro da lua. Allegro: amanhece, o campo espera com suas flores e frutos e divertimentos.

Thanks for a new upload! The portrait showed in the end is very lovely. I wonder is it drawn by you? I have never seen this portrait be coloured before

[@DelVivaldi]

It's from a poster that I have.
With this shading you can see that in the caricature by Ghezzi, Don Antonio is not represented with his mouth open as is sometimes described. This is also shown by a second version of the portrait by the same artist still unknown until fairly recently: www.cini.it/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/vivaldi_evento-1.jpeg

Del Vivaldi --- the massive👃of the King of 🎻

[@jonathanpearl5379]

Based on Ghezzi's portrait, I always thought that actor Daniel J. Travanti resembled Vivaldi.

So I've noticed that on some of these Vivaldi Concerti autographs there is sometimes an extra obligato? line above the concerto violin line. And you have blocked that out of the video to keep the solo line on top. What is that line? And what is the story behind it? So curious!!! (A Baroque violinist who doesn't know this!)

[@DelVivaldi]

There isn't anything above the solo line. If you are seeing a staff that is cut off at the top of the image, it is the continuo line of the preceding measures. On Venetian paper each sheet of music has ten staves ruled on it, and since Vivaldi normally has five parts in a solo concerto, there are two systems per page, and that is what you are seeing (above or below) what I am showing.

[@mannerardin9997]

@@DelVivaldi ahhhh... of course, a simple thing. No big mystery, lol

[@DelVivaldi]

@@mannerardin9997 I'm afraid not, but there is a lot of extramusical stuff that remains mysterious about these manuscripts, such as marginal markings (letters and sings that probably indicate the destination or past use of the music), and I make a point to leave those in; and also of course their date which is never given.

[@DelVivaldi]

Such as Vivaldi counting money at 2:22

[@christianwouters6764]

Indeed interesting. Currency was not in decimal system back then, you see the units and after the double point the lesser money in 20ths of the unit.​@@DelVivaldi
