The Four Seasons / Concerto for Two Mandolins / Concerto for Two Trumpets

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Jan Tomasow & Antonio Janigro & Zagrebački solisti

The Four Seasons / Concerto for Two Mandolins / Concerto for Two Trumpets is a compilation of instrumental concertos by Antonio Vivaldi, with The Four Seasons composed in 1723. Musically rooted in the Baroque idiom, the works feature virtuosic solo writing against ritornello-driven ensemble passages, clear tonal contrasts and descriptive gestures that anticipate later programme music, and together they illustrate Vivaldi's significant contribution to the development of the solo concerto in the early 18th century.

First released: 1997
