Description: Baroque violinist Théotime Langlois de Swarte presents a loving tribute to the 'Red Priest' with a selection of violin concertos tracing the contours of his life - drawing on the 'vocal' quality present even in Vivaldi's instrumental music and expertly fine-tuning his performances to fit the composer's changing styles over the years. Along the way de Swarte also introduces us to several concerti never recorded before, a recently-discovered sonata believed lost until 2022, and the first performance of the original version of 'Summer' from the Four Seasons. 2CDs
