The Four Seasons

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Nadja Salerno‐Sonnenberg & Orchestra of St. Luke’s

The Four Seasons is a set of four violin concertos by Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1725. Written in the Baroque idiom, the concertos use ritornello form, energetic solo-violin figurations and vivid programme-style instrumental effects to evoke seasonal scenes, and they appear as Op. 8 Il cimento dell'armonia e dell'inventione, reflecting Vivaldi's experiments with programme music within the concerto tradition.
