Antonio Vivaldi (1673-1741) was an Italian composer, violinist and teacher in the Baroque era. His name has become synonymous with the series of Violin concertos known as the Four Seasons , but he also wrote over 500 other concertos for various instruments, as well as dozens of operas and several sacred works. The Concerto No. 23 (RV 425) was written in 1725. Set in the key of C major, it was originally scored for solo Mandolin with String Orchestra and Continuo Bass (Cembalo). It has been arranged for Guitar or Mandolin with Piano accompaniment by the French composer Fernand Oubradous .

“French pianist, arranger, composer and conductor, Jean-Michel Defaye (b. 1932) entered the Paris Conservatoire at the mere age of ten years old. His successful compositions and arrangements were mainly for brass, In the Style of Vivaldi, composed in 2002 for Trombone and Piano, being no exception. With a typical performance lasting about four minutes, Defaye's In the Style of Vivaldi reflects the compositional techniques of Antonio Vivaldi by use of contrapuntal textures, modulations to related keys, long and even quaver and semiquaver melodic passages, syncopation and contrasts in dynamics. Defaye's passion to explore a variety of preceding composers is clear with In the Style of Vivaldi being a part of a series which explores the music of many great composers. For all aspiring trombonists wishing to vary and expand their repertoire, In the Style of Vivaldi by Jean-Michel Defaye is essential.&rdquo.
