Gloria, RV 589 / Beatus vir, RV 597

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Schola Cantorum of Oxford & Jeremy Summerly & Northern Chamber Orchestra & Nicholas Ward

Gloria, RV 589 and Beatus vir, RV 597 are sacred choral works by Antonio Vivaldi, composed in the early 18th century. Both pieces exemplify Italian Baroque liturgical music, featuring vigorous choral writing set against lively orchestral textures, alternation between solo and ensemble passages and a compact, rhythmically driven style that places them within Vivaldi's wider Venetian sacred output.
First released: 6th February 1995
