Vivaldi's Four Seasons 4K
  • DrDaveDrDave

    Vivaldi's most famous work is here performed from a newly discovered manuscript of his lost opera, "Disco Volante," which was unearthed in a trattoria in Venice. Proprietor Giacomo Arditti was in the midst of a remodel when manuscript pages of music literally flew out from inside the walls, where they had been stuffed for centuries as a sort of insulation. Arditti, an enthusiastic collector of antique Venetian Carnival masks, immediately realized the significance of the find. Sadly, only a few pages of the complete work have survived, owing to the inevitable "Acqua alta" of Venice.
