Le quattro stagioni

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Alice Harnoncourt & Concentus Musicus Wien & Nikolaus Harnoncourt

Le quattro stagioni is a set of four violin concertos by Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi, published as part of his Opus 8 collection in 1725. The music exemplifies Baroque concerto writing and early programme music, with virtuosic solo violin passages contrasted against string ensemble ritornello structures to depict seasonal contrasts, and it holds an important place in Vivaldi's output and the development of the solo concerto genre.
