Venice is a city where the past lives side-by-side with the present, where works that might seem old-fashioned to the rest of the world live on, as fresh as the day they were created. So it is no surprise that Interpreti Veneziani hail from the Serenissima.
Like much in Venice, Interpreti Veneziani is devoted to showcasing the glory of a bygone era, specializing in Baroque music, and in the works of Antonio Vivaldi. With true joy and exuberance, this group of technical masters trade solos with ease, often working without sheet music.
