The UVA Department of Music presents an Open Workshop by the Vivaldi Project.   The Vivaldi project will be working with the Baroque Orchestra.  This free event takes place on Thursday, October 2nd at 7pm in room 113 Old Cabell Hall. This workshop is supported by the Gertrude Weber Endowment for Music.

The Vivaldi Project will present a free recital on Friday, October 3rd at 8pm in Old Cabell Hall.  The concert that is also supported by the Gertrude Weber Endowment for Music, is also free and open to the public.

The musicians of The Vivaldi Project, dynamic educators as well as renowned performers, will explore with the students in the Baroque Orchestra some techniques and concepts involved in the performance of Early Music.  Attendees, whether experienced musicians or novices, are sure to gain valuable insight from observing their interaction.

The period instrument ensemble takes its name from the virtuoso violinist and innovative composer Antonio Vivaldi in recognition of his pivotal position between earlier Baroque and later Classical composers. The Vivaldi Project's recording series, Discovering the Classical String Trio (MSR Records), continues to receive critical claim. Volume 4, released in early April 2024, was spotlighted by WETA with a week long premiere broadcast, video reels, and interviews .​Learn More
