Vivaldi is truly an under-rated genius, and deserves much more recognition. I sincerely hope and pray, that one day he shall be no longer be looked upon as a "simplistic" composer, but rather, a truly sophisticatedly brilliant Mastermind. His music is clearly not for the simple minded, due to the fact that he possesed purity of sound, and complexity of one of the highest levels of melodic beauty and piety, which is clearly conveyed through his "simple" compositions. If anyone agrees with my theory of his under-rated reputation, please write to me, and I will gladly listen, thus reply to your comment.
