"Praised for its brilliant and expressive playing, The Vivaldi Project is dedicated to presenting innovative programs of Baroque and Classical string repertoire that combine scholarship and performance to both educate and delight audiences. The period instrument ensemble takes its name from the virtuoso violinist and innovative composer Antonio Vivaldi, recognizing his pivotal position between earlier Baroque and later Classical composers. Since it was founded in 2006, The Vivaldi Project has performed throughout the country and can be heard on radio stations around the world, including live performances and interviews for Washington’s WETA, North Carolina’s WCPE and WUNC, Indiana’s WBAA, and Minnesota Public Radio. The Vivaldi Project has produced a number of educational videos and held workshops and residencies at music schools around the country, including the University of Virginia, Vanderbilt University, the Boston Conservatory, and the Curtis Institute of Music.
