Concerto in A Minor (RV 461) for Oboe & Strings - YouTube Mike Magatagan

Antonio Lucio Vivaldi (1678 – 1741) was an Italian Baroque musical composer, virtuoso violinist, teacher, and priest. Born in Venice, the capital of the Venetian Republic, he is regarded as one of the greatest Baroque composers, and his influence during his lifetime was widespread across Europe. He composed many instrumental concertos, for the violin and a variety of other instruments, as well as sacred choral works and more than forty operas. His best-known work is a series of violin concertos known as the Four Seasons. Possibly the last of Antonio Vivaldi's 13 oboe concertos, the Concerto in A minor (RV 461) is a three-movement work scored for oboe soloist, strings, and basso continuo. The opening Allegro non molto in the tonic minor features a shorter than usual ritornello from the ripieno and longer than usual and more difficult than usual passages for the soloist. The central Larghetto in the major features especially lyrical lines for the soloist over stately chords for the ripieno. The closing Allegro in the tonic minor returns to the driven tempo of the opening movement and brings the work to an exciting conclusion. Source: AllMusic (https://www.allmusic.com/artist/anton... ). Although originally created for Oboe, Strings & Basso Continuo, I created this Arrangement of the Concerto in A Minor (RV 461) for Oboe & Strings (2 Violins, Viola & Cello).
