Vivaldi - The Four Seasons - RV 269 - 315 - A performance of all four concerti.

Описание: Antonio Vivaldi – The Four Seasons (Le quattro stagioni)
Experience the brilliance of Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, a set of four violin concertos that vividly depict the natural beauty and emotional essence of each season. Composed in 1723 and published in 1725, this masterpiece remains one of the most beloved and influential works in classical music.

Each concerto is inspired by an accompanying sonnet, believed to have been written by Vivaldi himself, bringing to life everything from springtime birdsong to the icy winds of winter.

Movements:
Spring (La primavera): Joyful melodies, singing birds, and gentle rains.
Summer (L’estate): Intense heat, buzzing insects, and a sudden thunderstorm.
Autumn (L’autunno): Festive dances, harvest celebrations, and a peaceful slumber.
Winter (L’inverno): Biting winds, slipping on ice, and the warmth of a fire indoors.
