""Concertos on Authentic Instruments" features a series of compositions by Vivaldi. The selections are performed by the Musici di San Marco, conducted by Alberto Lizzio. This is elegant, lovely, relaxing classical music. The "authentic instruments" mentioned in the CD's curious title include flute, violin, oboe, bassoon, and more. I find this music both soothes and stimulates my mind, and thus is great music to write by. So whether you like to write or do anything else that is creative (paint, cook, do needlework, make love, etc.) I recommend playing these concertos in the background."
