The famous concerto is played in one of the architectural gems of the Alcazar - the beautiful Salon de Embajadores (the Ambassadors' Hall). The square court, dating from the eleventh century, with its remarkable decorated arches and richly adorned dome, was originally the throne room of Banu Abbad. The present space, its walls covered by patterns of glazed tiles below impressive plaster ornamentation, comes from a renovation in the fourteenth century. Its cupola was carved in the time of King Don Juan II of Castile and is dated 1427. Vivaldi's Violin Concerto has experienced nearly as many alterations (including transcription for harpsichord by Bach) as the Ambassadors' Hall.
Did you know that world-famous guitarist John Williams and filmmaker Christopher Nupen studied classical guitar together and that Andrés Segovia was their teacher? Discover more in this documentary by Christopher Nupen about his colleague and friend on @allegrofilms : • John Williams at Ronni...

If all life could be this wonderful.

[@italiantraditionalcatholic2390]

it's supposed to be lute

[@antonioolivo4458]

I agree too!

[@antonioolivo4458]

I agree too!

[@patrickmcdermott6285]

It's so sublime I agree with you totally and the largo is beautiful !!

[@feralbluee]

Gosh, Williams is so good. No drama, just dramatic, clear, wonderful playing. And I just love Vivaldi!!! 🌷🌱

[@stephenjablonsky1941]

Vivaldi certainly composed some of the most delightful music ever written. He would love this performance...I know I do.

[@alexbozzi6393]

The happiest 10 minutes in music. Everybody listens to this 3 times a day, a whole lot of the world's problems just end in a week.

[@adrianampfull]

Verdaderamente lo escucho al menos tres veces al día. Indudablemente alivia las tensiones.

[@cindyjordan2386]

I heard the Largo turned into a song in 1974 at a performance of The Two Gentlemen of Verona. The most beautiful movement in all music. Had it played at my wedding with a reading from The Song of Songs. Magic.

[@yogi9631]

just superb. To me Vivaldi was/is the ultimate and the best. The most complete musician and composer. He is so under rated. This composition along with many of his others is profection marriage of instruments and musical melody 👏👏

[@terryromero6552]

I fell in love with the Largo part of this piece many years ago, before the WW Web existed. I had heard it in a movie soundtrack as a young woman, and was so moved by it, that I wanted it played at my wedding one day. But I didn't know the name of it, mistook it for part of the Four Seasons, and I couldn't find it. Turned out my fiancé's folks provided a lovely church choral group, so all was well! Nonetheless, I'm so very happy to hear this again!

[@varkony60]

Usually they used to play it slower. That would radiate a bit more dignity - in my opinion.

[@patfranklin4620]

The haunting movie, that this piece was featured in, is called Bermuda Depths.

[@mikaelleskinen1349]

Music has the power of uniting people all over the world regardless of religion,skin color or political opinion.This is beatiful.

[@plealypaul8019]

Maestro Williams & the Songbird of the Baroque,Vivaldi! Wonderful !!

[@ivangonzalezpolaiii1223]

Jesse, we need to Cook

[@nevilleoliver1883]

John Williams is simply brilliant!

[@joofaloof3219]

Finally I get to see a dvd quality version of this. So many years I’ve watched blurry versions of this. That setting is so beautiful.

[@displaychicken]

I agree! It’s like I just put glasses on after years of blurry vision!

[@schutendohkji548]

utube does this to all of the old videos they sponsored. so go complain to them pls if u know where to contact. there's no reason for dem to do sheit like dat bc. memory bytes r cheap n they have 10s of thousands of servers they can add more memories in their network n they get nuf $$$ from all these pop-up screen sheit adverts now, which even B4 that scheme, they were n still getting good amt of $$$ from the ISPs we use everytime we vist utube's site. No reason for us to tolerate junk repeating adverts.

[@Margie4178]

Utterly beautiful. My go-to music in stressful times.

[@graemelogie3656]

For years I have been trying to find the tune that was played on the CBS Morning News with Hughes Rudd back in the early 70's, and now, I have found it, "Largo"! Bellissimo!

[@94picton]

This has featured in my life since my teenage years and is still magical to me. Heaven on earth.

[@onkelmarvin8360]

Me too mate...............since my childhood actually. There was a very popular programme on Danish TV, and the theme song was the second movement.................everybody who grew up in Denmark in The 70s.............knows this piece of music.................Take care @94picton............❤

[@sigistrele5835]

It was the RV93 that brought me to classical music when I was 10 years old. This work was the musical theme of a television thriller. "Tatort" That's when I learned to love Vivaldi.

[@lauraba39]

I’m 20 years old again this inspired me so much took lessons for 6 years ❤

[@will8026]

I get sense that the guitarist isn't feeling anything much in the second movement and the piece just breezes along. This is one of the most touching inward-turning movements Vivaldi wrote and I'll say this. Vivaldi could NOT have composed this piece unless he felt something, no matter how much of music-making machine he and composers of that era were. If not passion it was LOVE that drove anyone to choose a perilous career composing. Vivaldi composed because he could not have done otherwise....like breathing.

[@envitech02]

Simply heavenly!!! John Williams is The Maestro here!!

[@spacetimemalleable7718]

Elegant and perfect! Extraordinary performances by all, in a magnificent and beautiful setting. Bravo!

[@UKGeezer]

With all the crap going on in the world right now, it' so nice to lose yourself in this beautiful music.

[@hanshoning9529]

묘한 매력이 있는 곡입니다.황병기선생님의 숨결이 느껴지는 예술혼의 만남. 거의 매일 듣게되는 곡입니다.모든 연주자의 리듬을 모두 느끼고자 하며 늘 감사드립니다.좋은곡 좋은연주 듣는시간이 천국의 정원을 춤추는 학을 보는듯.

[@gilbertpangyarihan8014]

Himmlische Musik kann nur auf der Erde gefunden werden. Zertifiziert intergalaktischen! Halleluyen! Allahu Aardvarken! 🌹

[@geeshta]

Vivaldi's was so ahead, his music tends to have more views/streams online than many other famous composers.

[@terencegalland]

maravilloso Search for this on Go🎶🎵🎶

[@mlopez4053]

Excelente interpretación!!!!

[@frederexier3319]

Thanks for having published this new version! Muuuuch better quality and no audio/video sync issues...🤗

[@abqualcosa9737]

Magnifica interpretazione. Williams come sempre bravissimo.

[@cherylfitch3183]

I kept looking up Vivaldi but it was by John Williams that I knew this beautiful song…of Vivaldis

[@TheLidiasanjose]

Esta cancion me hace recordar telenovelas vistas en Peru en donde no vivo nunca mas, pero me hace sentir bien. No se si fueron argentinas, venezolanas, o mexicanas pero fueron al lado de mami la cual sigue viva gracias a Dios.

[@timminchen]

Just perfect and what a setting to play such beautiful music

[@khaledyaghi64]

The setting is Islamic , Mashaa'Allah.

[@funkykoval2099]

Great introduction to classical music ! Understandeable and elegant !

Un genio. Maestro de Maestros de la guitarra. Una precisión que impresiona. La melodía la hace aún más deliciosa.

[@user-my3iy8ru8c]

Браво - Огромное Спасибо за потрясающеклассное исполнение и понимание Вивальди

[@eunaekim9216]

A movement of extreme beauty bookended by two vigorous and completely underrated movements. Frick the Four Seasons - this is the best Vivaldi piece!

[@bayreuth1951]

Es ist eine sehr schöne Leistung. Ich wurde bewegt！

[@alexbozzi6393]

Antonio certainly saw the world vastly differently than the rest of the mere mortals on this amazing ball on which we all live.

[@marimarin9990]

Con este sr. Tuve la suerte de cenar en bcn, salimos juntos de su concierto, y nos encontramos en la misma mesa juntos, fue por necesidad de mesa, pero guardo su firma en el programa de el concierto en el palau con gran estima, es el más grande

[@josephpineda7866]

Beautiful scene, beautiful music, beautiful everything ❤️❤️

[@juanschaefer9338]

Como cada vez que escuchamos música tan hermosa, dudamos de la inexistencia de Dios.

[@milanradulovic3915]

Pues yo lo observo de esta manera: el universo esta basado en las vibraciones, pero este sonido también. No cabe duda por que provoca tantas buenas emociones en nosotros la Música, sobre todo simple (digo simple porque se trata de instrumentos muy simples en su construcción). Es básicamente un reflejo del mismo Universo que nos rodea.

[@tiagocastro8049]

The great Williams ! I like the second movement bit more slow but is me!?

[@doravillegas2758]

Concierto fabuloso, interpretación de guitarra y orquesta sinfónica, magnífico.

The first sentence is a masterpiece. The best performance of this onkine: lenka Filipova

[@Dogaradodia]

Certifié intergalactique !🌹

[@suneli2008]

Волшебно. Спасибо большое!

[@allenhunt2671]

I agree that this ranks with any of the seasons concerti, but there are some from l'estro armonico that are no less amazing - and Bach seems to have thought so, too, having reorchestrated several for either 3 or 4 harpsichords or organ.

[@savetheearth5404]

Sacred Joy

[@dursunoner]

Mukemmel bir yorum ve cok iyi bir kayıt.Tesekkurler.

[@matthewmclintock7194]

Beautifully played but I feel the pace of the second movement is a little fast for my taste.

[@josepaulinogarciaperez7955]

👍

[@martinestrada3155]

Pienso lo mismo. Un poco más lento. Saludos!

[@lillen6080]

pop off old man

I'm learning guitar for 3 months and i have to play this😭

[@Dr_b_]

ballin'

[@anarkorock]

music 10/10 sweater for/the lulz

[@markus_ulbrich]

This ist of course brilliant and perfect but for me the interpretation by Narciso Yepes is just unbeatable, especially the Largo is pure magic, he's playing it one octave lower.

[@sdlegend9927]

Allegro is fire

[@Ihavetruth22]

I think this Vivaldi was genius.

[@TSvetanovOrlin]

Много е красиво

WOW this room sounds incredible! Where can I get that turtle neck?

Pourquoi la guitare alors que c'est pour luth!!! Pourquoi pas l accordéon ou l onde Martenot pendant que nous y sommes ???

[@rayyoshida7963]

The ad between movements are so annoying and destroying the music.

[@liamwatson5125]

I think of the Parliament Building in Ontario when I hear this.
