Surdiny v partiturakh Antonio Vivaldi / Mutes in Antonio Vivaldi’s scores
The article discusses the baroque methods of mute’s use for string and wind instruments in Antonio Vivaldi’s scores, in contrast with their use in later epochs. Composer’s instructions (con Sordini, con Piombi) are transcribed and analyzed, and the main roles of mutes are argued such as achieving the desired sound balance and imaging the affects.
