Viva Vivaldi

Antonio Vivaldi's operatic arias are characterized by great emotions, virtuosic coloratura, and expressive cantilenas. The young Russian soprano Julia Lezhneva, whose career began with a veritable bang at the Salzburg Festival in 2011, brings Vivaldi's music to life in a new light, together with Giovanni Antonini and his orchestra Il Giardino Armonico.
