From 2:33 to 2:45 there is a chromatic chord progression that doesn't sound very Baroque at all. It sounds Late Romantic.
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. :^)
