Le quattro stagioni

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & The English Concert & Simon Standage & Trevor Pinnock

Le quattro stagioni is a set of four violin concertos by Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1725. Written in the Baroque idiom, the concertos employ programme elements to depict seasonal scenes through virtuosic solo violin writing, contrastive orchestral textures and clear ritornello structures, and they occupy a prominent place in Vivaldi's output and in the development of the solo concerto.
