»Als Geiger agiert Biondi mit allen Strategien, inklusive der Aufgabe der temperierten Intonation – das ist fesselnd. Als Orchesterleiter fehlt ihm vielleicht die letzte entschiedene Charakterisierung. Wer gezielt hört, nicht alle Konzerte auf einen Streich, wird reich belohnt.« (Stereo, April 2015)

[brianchristopher]

Antonio Vivaldi is definitely my favorite Baroque composer.

[jayshaft]

I have to give some major musical love and respect to Fabio Biondi and Europa Galante for performing a huge amount of little known or forgotten Vivaldi compositions. Using the Baroque period instruments to make it sound as close a possible to Vivaldi's originals. Bravisimo!

[Salazar]

I feel Vivaldi was too much advanced for his era...
His music is full of feelings and passion so powerful and may simply enjoy such a masterpiece...👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Vivaldi is a master with no peer. He has been accused of using the same forms of progression over again but this does not matter to me. His music always delights me and always touches my soul

[moskalenkoalexey]

Прекрасный концерт, редко исполняемый, на фоне замечательной, живой и реалистичной картины. Молодцы итальянцы, спасибо им за высокое искусство.

Grande Vivaldi ! la tua musica attraversa tutte le generazioni 🇮🇹🎼🎻😍

[SunsetBoulevard]

Music is a reflection of your environment. This and thousands of other classical compositions reflect another time and place when the environment was provincial, puritan, benevolent, simple, intelligent, wise, stoic, etc. Beauty.

Several years ago I listened to this marvelous group in the Shriver Hall auditorium at John's Hopkins U in Baltimore, MD.

Their performance was beyond awesome; it was literally STRATOSPHERIC! The audience gave the orchestra an applause that lasted for a full two minutes, followed by a second for another three minutes!

To show his appreciation, Mr. Biondi performed some of the summer concerto by Vivaldi that was NOT a part of the evening's performance.

For me, the highlight of the evening was Fabio autographing my program guide!

2:15 is such an unique passage i love this feeling as if there was a drum giving the rythm.

[russian-canadianfamily]

His music is so soothing and forgiving! Thank you composer and thanks to Lord who blessed him with this gift 🎁

The double-stop during 4:21-4:36 sounds crying like a man, but much more moving. Appreciate for sharing the masterpiece which will be never forgotton only contact once. Also, Fabio Biondi, a great violinist.

[ИринаВасильченко-чм]

Бесконечно слушаю Вивальди. Какое блаженство.
Что- волшебное происходит с душой, с каждой клеточкой.
Сказочно, волшебно.
Такое ощущение, что попадаешь в другой мир.
Мир бесконечного счастья. 8

When I play Vivaldi outside, suddenly a lot of little song birds show up and fly all around us! So amazing.

[rafaelmoravillafuerte]

Vivaldi, the maximum representative
