Books
 Kurt
Sven Markstrom. The Operas of Leonardo Vinci, Napolitano.
Pendragon Press 2007.
Details. Opera Series No. 2. 394 pages. This is an
exceptional and fascinating book that combines a biography of
Vinci with detailed analysis of his operas and an overview of
rapid changes in Italian opera in the 1720s. It is illustrated
with contemporaneous caricatures of singers and composers,
including a Ghezzi sketch of Vinci (apparently) towering over a
diminutive Faustina Bordoni (p. 100). (Vinci had a reputation
not unlike Stradella's and like Stradella may have been
murdered.) The numerous musical examples include Handel
borrowings such as the theme of "O God-like Youth" in Saul
(p. 150) and arias in Vinci's Farnace (Rome 1724)
influenced by Vivaldi including an aria for saltiero (p. 72), an
instrument for which Vivaldi also composed an aria during the
same season (Giustino, Rome 1724).
