An exquisitely illustrated picture book inspired by the creative, determined life of Baroque composer Antonio Vivaldi.In this picture book inspired by the life of Antonio Vivaldi, the composer himself narrates how a creative, resolute boy grew up to create masterpieces like The Four Seasons.Despite his mother's vow for him to become a priest, young Vivaldi is only interested in music. He soon grows from a feisty, violin-obsessed boy into a stubborn young man who puts his musical training ahead of his studies for priesthood.Beautiful, ornate artwork from illustrator Tom Shefelman portrays the spirit and splendor of Vivaldi's hometown of Venice. A historical note, musical score, and glossary will help readers more fully appreciate the composers Baroque context and his enduring genius.
