reviewed I, Vivaldi on June 23, 2008 I, Vivaldi
Vivaldi is my favorite composer, so of course I had to read this book! I enjoyed this biography, told in Antonio's own voice. I didn't know that he had asthma. The book didn't say what he died from, but I wonder if it was related to his condition. It's interesting that what he lacked in physical ability he made up for with his creative ability, as if the energy that would have gone into his muscles had to go somewhere, so it went into his brain. I really must read a longer biography of him. The only thing that would have made this book better was an accompanying CD sampler of his music, so that readers could hear for themselves the brilliance of his work.
