One final quote, this one from the late musicologist Boris Schwarz, whose "Great Masters of the Violin" is superb criticism authoritative, personal, judicious and tender, perhaps the model study of an instrument and its practitioners: At his best, Vivaldi is a composer of genius, bursting with inventiveness and imagination orchestrally far ahead of his time," Schwarz wrote. "Nor was he satisfied to compose primarily for the violin as was the custom among violinist-composers of his time. His restless imagination carried him far beyond such narrow limits... It is as an instrumental composer that Vivaldi is incomparably alive and touched by genius." -Tim Page

Shlomo Mintz and the Israel Chamber Orchestra surely need no recommendation in this kind of genre and the early 1990's recordings come up as fresh as the literal fiddle which Mintz plays on. The balance between soloist and orchestra is well nigh unsurpassable and the music leaps around with zest and joy. There really is nothing much further to add to these excellent recordings which are surely up in the top ranks of Vivaldi works. One obviously looks forward to further reissues in this excellent series.
