La Serenissima, Venice, the most beautiful city in the world, has inspired artists of all genres to create masterworks.
Venetians such as Giovanni Gabrieli, Antonio Vivaldi and Lorenzo Da Ponte (who created the librettos for Mozart’s Don Giovanni, Marriage of Figaro and Così fan tutte) have given us some of history’s sweetest music.
Hop on the gondola with QSO and host Guy Noble for a cruise up the Grand Canal with the best music from Venice.
