Books at San Giorgio

On 19 April the focus will be on music and the first volumes in the new critical edition of Vivaldi’s music for theatre. Published by Ricordi editore, the series entitled “The Critical Edition of the works of Antonio Vivaldi” will include the scores for the serenades and dramas set to music by Vivaldi which have come down to us intact. The critical texts accompanying each volume include a long introduction and critical apparatus
recording all the variations in the tradition. Two works have already been published: the Serenata a 3, RV 690, edited by Alessandro Borin, and La fi da ninfa, RV 714, edited by Marco Bizzarini and Alessandro Borin.
