Vivaldi still dominates the picture of Venetian musical life, even though there were almost equal contemporaries there. Among them are currently hardly common names like Giorgio Gentili or Johann Friedrich Schreyvogel. Mensa Sonora gives the works of these composers a new platform on their recording and also an insight into the music culture of the Serenissima beyond the paths of the 'red priest'.
