Romantic Baroque
Scott68 | Columbus, Ohio United States | 04/02/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Vivaldi wrote hundreds of concertos, many of them had an influence on Bach. The most popular and well known of his works are of course the four seasons but if you have heard them too much and want more Vivaldi, this is a great CD to get, great not good.It is arguable that Itzhak Perlman is the greatest living violinist, certainly one of the best I have ever heard. His technique is fantastic and he plays with incredible feel and a lush romantic vibrato. His tone is fantastic and every note is expressive and emotional and full of meaning and color.Some think baroque music should be played with little or no vibrato, that in the day vibrato was to be used as an ornament or as an effect. I personally love the way Perlman uses vibrato and his interpretations here are so expressive. I have many Perlman CDs and some are better than others, this is one of the best I have heard.This is easily one of my favorite CDs, I couldn't ask for a better Vivaldi CD than this. I give this CD five stars without hesitation: great music played and recorded incredibly well, isn't that what you want?"
Lovely--if you like Vivaldi, you'll love this one

"One of my favorites. If you're ready to get away from "The Four Seasons" and want one other Vivaldi album, this is it. Pearlman's interpretation, as usual, is lush, sensitive. I give this cd as a gift to classical music lovers more than any other."
Not the best value compared to other Perlman CD

"I bought this CD only to find there are 4 concertos, RV 199, RV 356, RV 317, and RV 347, and 3 out of the 4 are already on a CD that I have by Perlman "Vivaldi: The Four Seasons; Violin Concertos [includes 199, 356 and 347]". I would recommend the Four Seasons CD instead which is less than half the price of the one I'm reviewing. That is, unless you really like the G minor RV 317.But then, Perlman's playing is beautiful, romantic and inspiring."
