These include the catalogues of Mario Rinaldi (published in Rome in 1943) and the French French musicologist, music critic and violinist Marc Pincherle (1888-1974). Several catalogues of Antonio Vivaldi’s work have been published in the past. Photo by Federico Maria Sardelli, own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, Link Earlier catalogs of Antonio Vivaldi’s works Since July 2007, Sardelli has taken charge of the Ryom-Verzeichnis (RV) catalog. 8, RV 297 – “L’inverno” ( Winter)įederico Maria Sardelli. For instance, Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, comprising four violin concertos in different keys, and his renowned lute concerto were named and numbered accordingly. Vocal works were numbered after instrumental works, with the highest numbers reserved for newly discovered or confirmed works. Instrumental works were categorized by key, instrumentation, and category, beginning with C Major, and then assigned consecutive numbers.
RV numbering of Antonio Vivaldi’s works followed a systematic approach, with works below 741 being assigned in a sequential manner.
The catalog is widely used to assign a unique number to Vivaldi’s compositions for easy identification. The first version of this catalog was published in 1973 with the title Antonio Vivaldi: Table de Concordances des Œuvres (RV), and since then, it has undergone various revisions. So it can be translated as “Peter Ryom’s catalog of the works of Antonio Vivaldi”. Verzeichnis is the German word for catalog. RV is the abbreviation of “Ryom-Verzeichnis”, the established inventory of Antonio Vivaldi’s music, devised by the Danish musicologist Peter Ryom (born in Copenhagen).
