Travel back in time to meet Antonio Vivaldi by following Minime, a charming little mouse who is crazy about cheese and music! It is surely the coldest day of winter to be wandering the streets of Venice in search of the orphanage where little Ambrosina is sleeping. She has just lost a baby tooth and hopes to find a coin under her pillow when she wakes up. In this old building, which also houses a music school under the direction of the great maestro Antonio Vivaldi, the mission is dangerous and Minime must be extra careful to avoid a cat that is always on the lookout for its next meal. Fortunately, the kitty is a music lover too!

The narrated story, followed by some biographical notes, includes recordings of "Violin Concerto in F minor, Op. 8, No. 4, Winter, 1st movement" and "Violin Concerto in F minor, Op. 8, No. 4, Winter, 2nd movement".
