Description: This is an arrangement by A. Casella (1883-1947) of Antonio Vivaldi's Gloria for choir and orchestra. Casella turned Vivaldi's masterpiece into something that is attuned to the cultural and social drama of the 20th century without losing its original exceptional musical beauty.
The uploaded file is the digital version of the original LP released in 1970 by the 'Melodiya' record company of the Soviet Union. State Academic Russian Choir of the USSR orchestra of students of Moscow Conservatory conducted by A. Sveshnikov gave an outstanding performance that leaves us filled with wonder and delight. To the best of my knowledge Casella's version of Vivaldi's Gloria has never been publicly performed in the Western world. That is why I am happy to present Casella's work to KZitem baroque music aficionados.
