Uhmm... Interesting opinion on Vivaldi's music. I think,if we compare
any Barroque music with Bach's music,is like Casius Clay fighting against
a 90 pounds weigthing teen ager. Anyway one more time the problem of taste
and preferences.For me Haendel (despite i like his music),is by far less
inspired than Vivaldi.And if this music is less inspired,why Bach took so
much "inspiration" from Vivaldi's music,and made transcriptions of it?.
That 4 pianos concerto is great. Best wishes.
