La Gloria E Imeneo Rv 687: Reduction for Voice and Piano
La Gloria E Imeneo Rv 687: Reduction for Voice and Piano
(Vocal Score). The present reduction derives from the critical edition of the score of La Gloria e Imeneo, published in this catalog. The opera belongs to a group of the so-called ‘French serenatas’ by Antonio Vivaldi, namely a series of works composed and performed between the mid-1710s and mid-1720s of the eighteenth century in celebration of important recurrent and non-recurrent events relating to the Kingdom of France and its diplomatic representatives resident in Italy. This serenata was indeed commissioned from Vivaldi by the French ambassador in Venice, Jacques-Vincent Languet, Count of Gergy, on the occasion of the wedding of Louis XV to the Polish princess Maria Leszczyska, and was performed during a festa that took place in the ambassador s garden on the evening of 12 September 1725. This edition is based on the autograph score held by Biblioteca Nazionale Universitaria of Turin. It includes a brief Introduction and a critical apparatus that records all the variants between the autograph score and the secondary collate sources.
