....but the third movement characteristically like Vivaldi, because it features more sequences and less polyphony.
By the way - am I hearing brass? Baroque orchestras generally didn't use brass instruments... or is it an artifact of the MP3 rendering?

Well, there is still a lot of imitation within the solo part itself in mvt. 3, but overall the form is simpler, as you say.
There is no brass in any of the three movements. Perhaps your confusing the bassoon synth for brass? Other than that, there's strings and a flute (and organ continuo as well, but I didn't bother here, since there is no adequate synth for organ continuo!)
Or do you think it was a result of the brass-like melodic figure of mvt. 3? in which case I'd be very happy!
