Vivaldi in London (Chasing the Dragon Direct Cut 2LP)

At the beginning of December 2023, Chasing The Dragon brought over to London Italy’s leading chamber orchestra, Interpreti Veneziani. CTD decided to make a companion album to their Vivaldi in Venice — however, instead of a live recording, they decided to make a ‘Direct Cut’ double album. The music features eight Vivaldi concertos. Performed on period instruments, the album sounds amazing.
