About This Song
About "Vivaldi: La stravaganza, Op. 4: Violin Concerto No. 6 in G Minor, RV 316a: I. Allegro (Transcr. for Piccolo Trumpet and Baroque Or" by Alison Balsom
The opening allegro of Vivaldi's G-minor concerto is all taut sinew and shadow. Balsom's trumpet slices through the texture with silvery precision, the orchestra churning beneath. There's a dramatic urgency here, a sense of storm clouds gathering—brightness and foreboding locked in a thrilling dance.
