The whole atmosphere really captures the essence of Baroque music and the staging at Teatro La Fenice is something else. It feels intimate yet grand, which is a tough balance to strike. Diego Fasolis does a commendable job conducting, bringing out the nuances in Vivaldi's score. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the music to breathe. The performances are strong, with a real emphasis on vocal clarity, which is crucial for opera. I appreciate how it doesn’t shy away from the historical context, immersing you in that time. Overall, it's a distinctive viewing experience for anyone into opera or Vivaldi’s work.
