【古風按】Ofra Harnoy和Raphael Wallfisch各自的唱片公司在營銷他倆的CD的時候,都號稱是Vivaldi的《大提琴協奏曲全集》,可事實上兩者都非“全集”。仔細比較Harnoy的RCA錄音的目錄與Wallfisch的Naxos錄音的目錄(http://blog.wenxuecity.com/myblog/46947/201302/27510.html),
就會發現Wallfisch的合集缺少了RV 544和RV 547,而Harnoy的合集沒有收錄RV 398、RV 400、RV 421和RV 531四曲。在兩者之間,哪一個合集更值得收藏呢?古風覺得Wallfisch的合集更好些,若財力許可,當然可以再收藏Harnoy的合集,這樣Vivaldi的所有大提琴協奏曲就真的完整無缺了。
Antonio Vivaldi (1678–1741), nicknamed il Prete Rosso ("The Red Priest") because of his red hair, was an Italian Baroque composer, Catholic priest, and virtuoso violinist, born in Venice. Recognized as one of the greatest Baroque composers, his influence during his lifetime was widespread over Europe. Vivaldi is known mainly for composing instrumental concertos, especially for the violin, as well as sacred choral works and over forty operas. His best known work is a series of violin concertos known as The Four Seasons.
Many of his compositions were written for the female music ensemble of the Ospedale della Pietà, a home for abandoned children where Vivaldi had been employed from 1703 to 1715 and from 1723 to 1740. Vivaldi also had some success with stagings of his operas in Venice, Mantua and Vienna. After meeting the Emperor Charles VI, Vivaldi moved to Vienna, hoping for preferment. The Emperor died soon after Vivaldi's arrival, which left the composer without any royal protection or a steady source of income. Soon afterwards, Vivaldi became impoverished and died during the night of 27/28 July 1741, aged 63.
Though Vivaldi's music was well received during his lifetime, it later declined in popularity until its vigorous revival in the first half of the 20th century. Today, Vivaldi ranks among the most popular and widely recorded of Baroque composers.
