La Cetra, 12 Violin Concertos, op.9

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Iona Brown & Academy of St Martin in the Fields

La cetra, Op.9 is a collection of twelve violin concertos by Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1727. Rooted in the Baroque concerto tradition, the works feature virtuosic solo violin writing, clear ritornello structures and lively contrasts between soloist and ensemble, exemplifying Vivaldi's contribution to the early 18th-century development of the violin concerto repertoire.
