All of the works in this programme were written by Vivaldi for the church of Santa Maria de La Pieta in Venice. Here they are performed by the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment.

All of the works in this programme were written for the church of Santa Maria de La Pieta in Venice, where Vivaldi taught, and with specific performers in mind, the foundling girls of the Pieta. During Vivaldi's lifetime, these famous girls were celebrated as one of Europe's finest collections of musicians.
In this concert at St John's Smith Square, the perfect location in which to recreate the musical space of the old Pieta, one of Britain's finest period orchestras replaces the girls.
