Very very nice concerto! Thank you harmonico for uploading all this wonderful music. I am a big fan of your channel:) I think that 0:14-0:32 here sound very simular to Allegro ma non tao from RV434.

Could someone please explaine to me what a "muted violin" is?

[mroghy]

@moltoallegro19: A muted violin is a violin with a "sordina" applied. A "sordina" is a sort of ring shaped thing applied on the second and third chord, after the bridge. The effect is to dim easily the sound, other than change the sound: it appears more smooth.

[moltoallegro19]

Ah, now I understand. I have actually seen those things but never really noticed them or wondered what they are for (kind of embarrasing, being a violinist myself).

[Sakimonk]

@moltoallegro19 It is a small usually rubber ring device that is attached to the bridge of the instrument, dampening vibrations and resulting in a "softer" sound - reduced the vibrations of the bridge.
