Vivaldi is wonderful-- one my music teachers at school once pointed out to me that Vivaldi's music is full of musical 'jokes.' I think about that every time I listen to him now. It's really funny.
Well, just unpredictable dissonances, lots of deceptive cadences, things like that. Or sometimes he'll get you all set up to expect one chord progression, then do a completely different one. He was a tricky spud composer.
But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the Lord charged you, to
love the Lord your God, and to
walk in all his ways, and to
keep his commandments, and to
cleave unto him, and to
serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.
