You know what they said about Vivaldi: "he didn't actually write 400 concertos; he just wrote the same concerto 400 times" (there were haters in the Baroque era too!).

THE POINT IS I LOVE MANDOLIN, A NEGLECTED INSTRUMENT, IT MAKES ME HAPPY WHEN I'M DEPRESSED AND I SMILE

It is a painting by William Turner - Canal Grande, Venise.

The genius of Vivaldi is awesome

This isn't a song...this is emotion, and thought. Recorded onto the strings of an instrument. THIS is true composition!

just occasionally you discover something sublime

I had the honor of playing this masterpiece when I was little ... I fell in love instantly with this piece! Since then Vivaldi has been my favorite composer .. just beautiful

The melody is an exquisite balance of contrast, tempo, dynamism in its emotion, vibrant rhythmic and grace. Lovely and great to listen to Vivaldi's Concerto for Mandolin, indeed

LOONEY TUNES BACK IN ACTION!!!

We played this at my grandfather's burial in 1988 and I still miss him and cry a little when I hear this. Here's to you, Grampa Tuttle!

1. Allegro 0:00 2. Largo 2:35 3. Allegro 7:26

honestly, there's something about Vivaldi that is so beautiful that everyone wants to listen to his music. The pieces communicate feelings in an exquisite way and it makes me feel like I'm in heaven. Kudos to the person playing the mandolin in an amazing way! 💜👍

he is really the predecessor of power riffs in metal.

Antonio Vivaldi was the world's first Rock Star. The Four Seasons the world's first concept album (collection) over and above which he was the most sublimely talented and gifted instrumental virtuoso. Especially so on violin. If you don't believe me ask Rick Wakeman

I love this, but cannot play it right now. I listen to the whole thing in its entirety and never get tired of it. This is Vivialdi's Concerto for the Mandolin in C Major, all 3 movements. I also like others. Those are long-range goals.

Der 2. Satz ist ein Traum!

Für mich noch immer die schönste Interpretation dieses Werkes!

This is the first song I ever heard as a child and I fell so in love with it, I played it over and over, a throughout my childhood and teenage years...i have never stopped listening to it for 53 years.. My mom was a classical ballet dancer at the Hamburg State Opera, and this song brings up tears, every time I hear it. It reminds me of my father, a great German professor, who had a mandolin, and a cello. He played them both exquisitely. Every time I hear this I break down into a sobbing mess, because it symbolizes life, being born and dying, and how quickly the time in-between passes. Now we have a pandemic, and I probably will not see him again, because he is old and living in a closed facility. I miss him so much, and this beautiful song captures my entire life, raw and emotional, with so many regrets, and lost hopes and dreams, that I can barely stand it. I definitely want this as a funeral song... Peace on Earth, this song is a little piece of heaven.

I agree Helena Williams. I really love the way this piece makes me feel and reminds me of youth.

Ich liebe dieses Werk und diese Interpretation!

This is my favorite version with baroque tuning. I personally love any version in general, whether it's current tuning or baroque tuning. I've been a fan of Vivaldi since I was a baby, but I've officially started exploring more for at least 5 years.

This is gorgeous. Vivaldi is my favorite composer and I believe his musical ability is truly unsurpassable.

Un pomeriggio all'insegna del relax.

When I feel that despair one tends to feel these days about my individual and our collective performance as a 'human race', I seek out Vivaldi's perfect musical representatation of human sensitivity and weakness - of the human condition - and then I suddenly discover that, with careful listening and on balance, we might still be worth the effort, just about, and that we're still in the game. Just.

I just love the subtle pizzicato among the melody..

The Largo was used by Akira Kurosawa in "Stray dog" 1949. Let You discover the minute!

Sólo el Maestro Vivaldi puede hacer sublime el fantástico sonido de la Mandolina.

Super schöne Aufnahme, tolle Interpretation, voller Esprit. Vivaldi hätte seine Freude daran!

I love it when composers do things like this, which usually happens most of the time

Il y a beaucoup d'émouvantes et revigorantes sensations dans ces compositions pour mandoline et orchestre de Vivaldi, ainsi la mandoline utilise une forme de piqué ou pointillisme qui induit une sensation de joie , mais la mélodie de vivaldi est exceptionnelle , et ses lentos plein de mystère et d'innocente espièglerie ......Viva Vivaldi ! Le choix iconographique d'une vedute de Venise par Turner le pré-impressioniste anglais est judicieux , car on ressent bien cette paradoxale solidité de l'eau qui anime autour d'elle ce qui normalement est moins fragile : les exquises architectures civiles et religieuses , les bâteaux encadrés par basses et calligraphiques gondoles peintes en tonalité sombre .. .

questo concerto è meraviglioso. In questo video poi è suonato molto delicatamente ,il che ne esalta ancora la bellezza , molto bravi

I like the music and the painting too :)

Wonderful presentation!

What a joy to listen to such up-lifting music. The skill of the mandolin player and the accompanying emsemble is evident for all to hear.

Allegro, future Wes Anderson film

This piece is wonderful! It's like a deep feeling in yourself that awakens every time you listen this great work of art.

I love this genius composer!❤️🎼

I say, there's something very striking about that painting! I listen to this both for the wonderful music and to see this wonderful painting!

Qui sont les abrutis (e) qui ont donné un pouce en bas à cette merveille musicale ?

avec Vivaldi je ne m'ennuis jamais. En plus du caractère tonique de la mandoline que j'adore !

One of my favourite pieces.

Lovely song. I get more calm by it.

Amo este concerto! É tão suave, divertido e delicioso de se ouvir! Me traz ótimas lembranças...

Beautiful performance, such delicate and varied sound qualities. The recording was done very sensitively too. It's a relief to hear baroque music that doesn't sound like it was recorded in an echo chamber. Great choice of painting! Venice, Vivaldi's home, in all it's glory. Thank you for posting this.

I listen to this music in the mornings on my drive to work . Understand that I never listen to this kind of music in any other setting, but with all of that being said I have become a fan of Vivaldi . Very nice to listen to . 👍

I love dancing to Baroque music -- my older sister used to do it all the time, no matter what I played!

Genial, charmant, einfach großartig musiziert, sehr virtuos.

LOVE LOVE LOVE THAT MUSIC

Nunca había tomado en serio a la mandolina, hasta escuchar este sublime trabajo.

Lo más hermoso del autor único en su genero, gracias por poner este concierto en internet es un placer escucharlo.

who ever does not like this should not listen to mandolin music. thanks for one of the best classical songs ever

gorgeous piece and sublimely performed by all!

1:53 3:00 7:30

Love it! Sublime.

another piece of majestic musical architecture.,. a cascade of notes.,. in a river of emotions.,.

The interpretation of the final movement is terrific; the emphasis on the first beats and then the secondary echo is not in any other version I've heard. It gives it a playful lilt at times, and makes it more dramatic at others. Fucking awesome.

Wonderful! Vivaldi is one of my favorite composers.

Melodic, gentle, and beautiful

The first Allegro remembers me too many times I get what I want into my own way.....Bien x ti Toñito!!!!

I was attracted by the beautiful painting to come and found the amazing music!

Beautiful music. Loved it!

Great composer & great performers in your channel. Thank and many thanks too!!

Beautifull!

Viva Vivaldi! His music is vividly vital and a vision of virile voluptuousness.

Great recording, love the reverb

Beautiful, Bravo.

just beautiful

Thanks. Living and learning!!!

I love this! It's so sweet it's killing me.

Que belleza de concierto GRACIAS VIVALDI!

Ma nulla ha conosciuto il mondo più grande del genio italiano

Hermosa e increíble melodia

Juste magnifique !!!!!

Man, oh, man! Howdahell could none think in dance when levitating? This is simply magic. The usual magic that Don Antonio accostumed the world to.

I love this piece!

Magnifico. Bello!

Beautiful music... Beautiful painting. Love Light Life

Una de mis melodias favoritas, adoro el segundo movimiento

I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Спасибо!

Beautiful.

Thank you so much for this masterpiece! =D

I thought I knew this piece, but I didn't. Exceptional performance. Now I'm going to look for the album.

Springy light and crisp. Really nicely played!

It is my favourite!

Largo gives me the shivers. In a very good way.

Having listened to another performance of this piece on YT, I have no idea other than I like the piece very much, what tempo it is supposed to be played at. I also appreciate every listener will have their own tastes, but this tempo, to me, what I call got a train to catch tempo.

Great!

lindo...eleva a alma e nos coloca em sintonia com a Sinfonia do Universo, com o incriado, com o Infinito.

Beautiful

I love to have this playing while I study.

extra-ordinary interpretation. unique. thanks a lot for uploading

música de la mas grande época de la música, bellissimo!!
