Vivaldi's Violin 1687

Vivaldi man of “Four Seasons”
Played his violin for a reason
While singing the strings
Excellent music he brings
Great melody it rings

“La Primavera” sole concerto
Uplifting the spirits without alto
Amsterdam, Prague, Venice and Vienna
Spectacular operas making souls remember 
Strings and harmony joining in splendor

Maestro de Violino
Creating rhythm with his bow like no one knows
Musical scales moving your head
Great melody even for newlyweds
Tempo, decrescendo, awaken even a sleepyhead

Vivaldi man of “Four Seasons”
Played his violin for a reason
Bow singing the strings
Excellent music he brings
Great harmony it rings

Big smile! Love the rhyme scheme. I am also a fan of violinists, especially the young musicians! Love your method of presenting fact in a poetic style.

My son played Vilvaldi on his guitar (after weeks of practice!), at his younger sister's wedding....it was one of my favorite memories of that day. Thanks for the reminder! Great tribute!....Carrie

This is an awesome tribute to Maestro Vivaldi, one could almost hear the harmonious sounds filling the air... one of my sisters use to play the violin as well, do continue to encourage your son in this lovely endeavor, I would love to hear him play some day :-) God's Love and Many Blessings to you and family, Always, Adell
