| Description: This easy arrangement offers you multiple performance opportunities! Vivaldi's lyrical second movement, transposed to G major, is simple enough for the violin, viola, or cello soloist or soloists of your choice! This slow movement is literally the 'Calm between Storms.' Vivaldi's text to accompany this is: Spending quiet contented days by the fire while the rain outside drenches people by the hundreds. The music presents a lovely lyrical solo melody as the pizzicato accompaniment reflects the raindrops outside. |
