I don’t watch much PBS - I guess it was on last fall and I didn’t know it, so I set my DVR in case they rerun it, although it’s probably all online.
Scott Yoo seems pretty cool.
I never thought of Vivaldi as Baroque.
He has a sound that is of the Classical or Romantic era. Granted, on the lighter side of those when one considers the German masters.
But clearly not a regimented as Baroque.
Thanks!

Ooh, I see what you mean. Hey, someone had to be first. :^)
Heh... I’m a huge fan of Spike Jones (and have been since childhood) but I don’t quote him. :^) Stereo Review was a great magazine for people who didn’t own ears. :^D
Love me some Vivaldi! Here’s a different take on his Summer Presto:

Not to leave out the Ludwig fans, here’s a version of his Moonlight Sonata:

Vivaldi and Mozart are my favorites.
So much energy.
Hmmm... one of the related vids to, uh, something I’d been listening to, is a symphonic version of Led Zep’s “Kashmir”.

Oh, too short. Here’s another version that may tackle the whole thing:

I’m a baroque musician. I don’t have any money.
Most people who say they are a fan of Vivaldi only know The Four Seasons, and of that, they only know Spring.
Thanks! I’m going to be enjoying the links in here for the rest of the day.
Have you ever heard of this artist? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVUpKIFHqZk&list=LLV0sOy5UQsE_mH2QrY2N5Xg&index=2

This is magnificent. My heart is filled with joy.
Bkmk
I listen to Vivaldi a lot, but I think of his music as pleasant background music for the most part. Aside from The Four Seasons and his Gloria, I don't find his music terribly compelling. It certainly is repetitious.
Re: that quote. I remember reading one in a whimsical history of music that stated "some say Vivaldi wrote the same concerto 400 times. That's not true. He wrote the same 2 concertos 200 times".
