This is actually a review of a new CD of Vivaldi opera arias. Apparently, the Red Priest wrote a lot of opera, much of which is now lost. This is a tantalizing little blurb.
If there are among the pinged those who know more, I'd personally be interested. Thanks.
As it is, I think I may order the CD. I really love Vivaldi.

And the picture of the young lady on the cover of the CD isn't too hard on the eyes, either:

Thank you for the link. Never heard or read about Andante.com before.

Awwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!! My very, very favorite composer of all time; hence, my screen-name. I had a professor who felt Vivaldi's compositions were replete with repetition until I told him that he wasn't listening. He did learn to listen.

I have quite a lot of Vivaldi in my collection. It's amazing to consider the sheer volume of his work, and then discover a lot of compositions I don't even know.

Did you end up ordering this CD of Vivaldi opera arias? I saw it at Borders last night, and since I had a gift card from Christmas, I snatched it up. It's really good.
