Description: Titled "Venice by Night", the latest recording from this source expands beyond Vivaldi to provide a musical tour of the Venetian landscape, from gondola songs on the canals to concertos to opera overtures to a motet one might encounter at St. Mark's. The Porta, Pollarolo and Lotti are first recordings. Italian-English texts. Mhairi Lawson (soprano), Simon Munday (trumpet), Peter Whelan (bassoon), La Serenissima; Adrian Chandler (violin).
