6è. Vivaldi And The Fugue



Vivaldi
Vivaldi (1678-1741) was an Italian composer and a virtuoso violinist.
His most important works are: The Four Seasons and L’Estro Armonico, a collection of twelve concertos for 1, 2 and 4 violins.


The Fugue
In a fugue, the different voices or instruments are coming one after another by imitation, but in a different level, as if they were stories.






Now listen a piece from the L’estro Armonico (Op. 3 No. 11).
