The Places
Our journey takes us principally to the Tuscan spa resort of Montecatini and its neighbourhood.
The Music
Violinist, priest and most prolific composer, Antonio Vivaldi was born in Venice in 1678 and spent most of his life there, associated for much of the time with Ospedale della Pieta, a charitable institution for girls, with a strong musical tradition. The music for the tour is taken from his concertos for flute.
