Antonio Vivaldi
The Way He Helped Shape
The Baroque Era
Throughout history, there have been many distinct
eras of time. These various eras are all similar do to the
way they all slowly flow into one another. One of these
unique periods of time was the Baroque period. Baroque
music is very textured, especially in comparison with the
music that came before it. At the beginning of the Baroque
age, around the 1600, a new musical form was
developed……Opera. ... The ability of music to
express human emotion was truly discovered in the Baroque
period, Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons is the most well
known example of this. ... Bach, and George
Frederick Handel, Antonio Vivaldi is generally considered
to be the next greatest of composers. Like George Phillip
Telemann, Vivaldi wrote a vast quantity of music, including
the 500 concerti, for which he is chiefly famous for. Among
Vivaldi’s other works were the 94 operas, sadly however
only 19 of these operas were preserved.
