Hi Edward,
I played this piece with a professional modern orchestra a couple of
years ago. I don't remember anything about the presence or absence of
figures. Most Italians from Vivaldi's period didn't notate many figures
since it was expected that performers were so familiar with
stereotypical progressions from partimenti that figures were redundant.
I think I still have a PDF of the music. I'll be happy to send you a
copy when I get home. (I'll write in figures if you'd like).
Thanks,
Chris[1]

hi!
question for folk - all the editions of Vivaldi's Double Cello Concerto
RV 531 have no continuo figures. i've been asked to play continuo for
this, but am not confident of making my own figures from looking at the
other parts. does anyone know of a figured edition?
