Vivaldi: The Four Seasons

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Sergey Krylov & Lietuvos kamerinis orkestras

The Four Seasons is a set of four violin concertos by Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1725 as part of the collection Il cimento dell'armonia e dell'inventione. The music exemplifies Baroque concerto form, using virtuosic solo violin writing, vivid programme-style depictions of seasonal scenes and ritornello-driven structures, and it occupies a central place in Vivaldi's output and the history of instrumental programme music.
First released: 22nd April 2016
