Here’s a good bio (13:00) with much more info and wonderful images, plus various pieces by Vivaldi as background music (just ignore the very bad Italian and pronunciation by the narrator!)
Definitely worth watching!

HISTORY
While the Gloria, RV 589 is one of Vivaldi's most performed, recorded, and beloved works, it did not re-enter the cannon of choral repertory until its rediscovery in the 1930s. This is because, by the time of his death in 1741, the Baroque style was declining in popularity, in favor of the emerging Classical style of the Enlightenment, and the fact that Vivaldi's last years were marked by poverty, ill health, and increasing obscurity.
