Hi everyone.
Musical America is reporting that a very important discovery has been made in Dresden of a Vivaldi concerto. However, the article is password protected, and I can't find any references in the German or Italian media about it or on the web. Here's a link to the mention:

Does anyone know the scoop on this story?
Thanks!!

Thanks for finding this article for me.

The two Violin concertos they talk about are
the Violin Concerto in D Major RV 206:

It doesn't seem that the two articles are talking about the same music. The Musical America article, written by Carlo Vitali, mentions a concerto in A major, an outright discovery. The German article, by Michael Talbot, discusses two concertos in D major and D minor, both of which, if my cursory reading of the German is accurate, already exist in various forms.

You are right. May be there is a new discovered concerto in A major:
