La Cetra

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Holland Baroque Society & Rachel Podger

La cetra, Op.9, is a collection of twelve violin concertos by Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1727. The set exemplifies Vivaldi's mature Baroque concerto style, featuring virtuosic solo writing, ritornello structures and contrasts between soloist and ensemble, and it represents a stage in his development of the solo concerto tradition within early 18th-century Venetian instrumental music.
