Concerto pour viole d'amour

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Collegium Aureum

Concerto pour viole d'amour is a concerto by Antonio Vivaldi, composed in the early 18th century. Written in the Baroque concerto tradition, it features the resonant, sympathetic-string timbre of the viola d'amore alongside orchestral ripieno, employs ritornello form and virtuosic solo passages, and exemplifies Vivaldi's exploration of varied solo timbres within his instrumental output.
