Don't be shy...
As a thread starter you are supposed to start ;)
I don't know many arias from Vivaldi yet... but from the ones i know i'll say "Domine Deus".
Well I want to hear some but I don't know where to begin. I heard agitata da due venti and it was amazing.

I'm slowly discovering Vivaldi as an opera composer myself, and I think he was pretty good.
Check
my earlier comments (http://www.good-music-guide.com/forum/index.php/topic,11596.msg390243.html#msg390243) on
"Orlando Furioso" on the old forum - I'll repost them on the current
Vivaldi Recordings thread (http://www.good-music-guide.com/community/index.php/topic,1322.0.html).

Cool, I'll check it out. I also love this "artsy" cd covers :)
