The Four Seasons

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Camerata Antonio Lucio & Emmy Verhey & Alun Francis

The Four Seasons is a set of four violin concertos (Op. 8) by Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1725. Composed in the Baroque idiom, the concertos employ programme-style musical gestures, virtuosic solo writing and ritornello-based structures to evoke seasonal scenes, and they occupy a prominent place in Vivaldi's output and in the development of the solo concerto in music history.
