A vibrant three-movement concerto showcasing Vivaldi's signature contrast between solo violin and orchestral tutti, typical of the Italian Baroque style.
This concerto grosso showcases Vivaldi's signature tension between soloists (2 violins and cello) and orchestra, with abrupt dynamic shifts and haunting D-minor harmonies typical of his "dark" Venetian period.
Vivaldi’s Concerto in D minor, RV 565, is a Baroque-era work originally for strings and continuo.
It exemplifies his trademark rhythmic vigor and thematic clarity. Bach later transcribed it (BWV 596),
highlighting the cross-pollination of musical ideas in the 18th century.
