18th century Venice; where Hollywood meets Las Vegas; where the jet-set of Europe could conceal their identities behind masks and hurl themselves into the fake world of commedia dell’arte. Bellezza Crudel is a small selection of delightful cantatas and concertos. Vivaldi’s world is one of heartfelt, musical intensity, confirming the Venetians’ adoration of theatrical beauty.

Movement VII_ Entropy (c. 1780-1815)

Czardas is a lively Hungarian folk-inspired piece, most famously arranged for violin by composer Vittorio Monti in 1904. Based on the traditional csárdás dance, it captures the spirited contrasts of Hungarian gypsy music: starting with a slow, mournful lassú section and building into a fast, fiery friss. Its passionate melodies, sudden tempo changes, and virtuosic runs make it both a showcase for instrumental skill and an energetic expression of Central European folk tradition.
