7.I Musici Veneziani Concert: Vivaldi Four Seasons

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 945 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $42

Attend a 90-minute evening concert by I Musici Veneziani in the Salone Capitolare at Scuola Grande di San Teodoro. The musicians wear 18th-century Venetian costumes and perform Vivaldi’s Four Seasons alongside other Baroque works. Tickets are collected at the venue, and the concert starts at 8:30 pm.

“The impression that I had in looking at the ad was that it would be in a beautiful music hall. The music was lovely. In fact, it included a bit of opera that we weren’t expecting. My only criticism is that the facility was a single level room, on the third floor, with no elevation of seating, so if there was a tall person in front of you, you couldn’t see the stage or performers very well. The seats were not very comfortable. The overall atmosphere of the room was not as glamorous as the picture in the advertisement made it appear you should expect.”
