Southampton University research fellow Andrew Woolley claims to have found 18th century Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi's lost flute concertos at the National Archives of Scotland.
Talking to reporters, Woolley said he found the piece -- Il Gran Mogol -- while reading the Marquesses of Lothian's family papers in Edinburg.
He added that no other piece of the quartet, which included La Francia, La Spagna and L'Inghilterro, was found nearby. Only a part forsecond violin from Il Gran Mogol is missing .
Woolley said that he reconstructed the concerto by using another Vivaldi manuscript, which was kept in Turin and apparently the rework of Il Gran Mogol.
