Il Cimento dell’armonia e dell’inventione, op. 8 incl. Le quattro stagioni

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & L'Arte dell'Arco & Federico Guglielmo

Il Cimento dell'armonia e dell'inventione, Op. 8 is a set of violin concertos by Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1725. The collection exemplifies late-Baroque violin concerto writing, featuring virtuosic solo writing, energetic ritornello structures and vivid programme-like depictions of natural scenes, and it occupies a central place in Vivaldi's output and in the development of programme music and the solo concerto.
