RV589 is so well known that it tends to be called ‘the’ Vivaldi Gloria RV588, on the other hand, is rarely performed. This album is part of the project, and features two Vivaldi Glorias, plus an introductory motet. They’re about halfway through the 450 works, many of which haven’t been performed since the 18th century. The Vivaldi Edition, a recording venture set up in 2000, is in full swing – the plan is to record the complete collection of Vivaldi manuscripts housed by the university Library in Turin by 2015. We’re in the midst of a Vivaldian revolution at the moment. Personnel: Sara Mingardo (contralto), Concerto Italiano, Rinaldo Alessandrini (conductor) Review The recording also features a work recorded only four times in recording history: the 'Ostro Picta' introduction, that Rinaldo has chosen to associate with the Gloria RV589. The recording presents two major sacred works by Vivaldi: the celebrated Gloria RV589 and the much rarer RV588. Don't miss the stunning "Domine Deus Agnus Dei" from Gloria RV589. The all-star soloist line-up is headed by contralto Sara Mingardo, "one of the richest voices before the public today" (Gramophone, July 2009). It's their first major release for the Vivaldi Edition since 2004.
