Some fool once said that Vivaldi wrote just one concerto & rewrote it 1200 times. Not true, if you have ears. One of the many tragedies of WW II is that when Dresden was bombed, hundreds of manuscripts of unpublished Vivaldi pieces were destroyed--forever.

@naratchunzes1 Yes--j. S. Bach liked Vivaldi's concertos a lot. I've read that he based the forms of his own on Vivaldi's. I'm surprised that Stravinsky would say such a stupid thing. But then he thought he had a piece of shrapnel in his brain that was providing him with musical inspiration!
-
the first fool to say such a stupidity was Luigi Dalla Picolla the king of mediocrity
the second was Stravinsky.
The great J S Bach much better a musician than the already mentioned duo had a completely different opinion

This is a very fine version.

@analogyman Wow, I had no idea about the destruction of Vivaldi's manuscripts in the bombing. I actually knew so little about Dresden until my director had us perform Bukvich's Symphony No. 1 in Memoriam . . . my God, the whole thing was a horrible tragedy. But Vivaldi proves that beauty does exist, too--exceedingly so.
