https://youtube/watch?v=O6NRLYUThrY Life was not always easy nor in the Baroque era. Only a small privileged group (the aristocracy) fully enjoyed life; the majority had to work hard and much more longtemps than today. The absolute power of kings, queens and emperors caused much suffering on the population, which was still far from thinking of democracy. It was necessary to produce at a frenetic pace. Vivaldi produced music with brilliant effects, It came to my attention time ago that he even claimed to compose faster than a person could copy it! He wrote as much as Bach and Handel if put together.
