About the Event

Experience classical music like never before in this astonishing performance of The Four Seasons by Vivaldi at Venice's remarkable Chiesa di San Vidal.

The Four Seasons is Antonio Vivaldi's most famous work. Written in the Baroque era, during the 18th century, it is a set of four violin concertos that represent the seasons of the year. The composer took his inspiration from the countryside around Mantua, where he lived when he wrote the work, including the sounds of flowing creeks and singing birds in his composition.

San Vidal (San Vitale) is a Venetian concert and event hall located in the Sestiere of San Marco, at one end of Campo Santo Stefano.
Established at the end of the 11th Century by Doge Vitale Falier in honor of his namesake saint, the building burned down and was replaced in the 16th Century. Further renovations were needed in the 17th Century, and were completed in the style of the period. The interior hall has a vaulted ceiling, paintings by Pellegrini and Piazzetta dating back to the 17th century, and a detailed presbytery by Vittore Carpaccio. The altar piece depicts San Vidal on Horseback with Eight Saints, watched overfrom above by the Virgin with the Christ Child.
The composer Baldassare Galuppi was buried here, although his funeral was held in a nearby church called Santo Stefano, and no gravestone can be found in the hall.

Interpreti Veneziani

With youthful exuberance and Italian brio, the Interpreti Veneziani perform music by Vivaldi and other masters of the baroque: no musical ensemble captures the romance and mystery of Venice in a better way.

This string orchestra plays on prestigious original instruments and has received international acclaim from audience and critics alike for its incredibly beautiful and passionate performances.

Started more than 20 years ago, their concert season, consisting of more than 300 concerts, takes place in San Vidal Church, which was restored in the late 17th century and displays famous paintings of the Italian Renaissance and works of Vittore Carpaccio.

The brilliant programs, performed in harmony with the unforgettable atmosphere of the church and the city, create a unity between music and art: the quintessence of Venice!

Nothing like a concert of Vivaldi in his native city. Davide the cellist is a rockstar. It's a must go in Venice.

Fantastische Vorstellung, insbesondere der letzte Virtuose mit seiner Interpretation von Carmen hat meine Erwartungen um das vielfache übertroffen.
