Violin Concertos, op. 8, nos. 5-12

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Pinchas Zukerman & English Chamber Orchestra

Violin Concertos, Op. 8, Nos. 5-12 is a set of violin concertos by Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1725. The music displays hallmarks of the late Baroque concerto — driven ritornello forms, virtuosic solo writing set against active orchestral accompaniment, and clear tonal contrasts — and the set forms part of Vivaldi's Op. 8 output, representing a significant stage in his shaping of the solo concerto genre.
