Viva la Vivaldi

To those who are music illiterate, you have about 1 hour left to celebrate Vivaldi's 332nd birthday, in Malaysia that is.

Antonio Vivaldi is probably to most famous Baroque composer from Venice, known for his works of The Four Seasons. My favorite is Winter as shown below. To fully understand the music, you have to understand the culture which it was written in which covers architecture, art, social anthropology, theater and even lifestyles. Go Google Baroque and you'd find plenty of material to keep you in awe.

P.S.: BTW, all the masks in the video make all of ours last year look like amateurs.
