Description

Vivaldi's The Four Seasons is the most famous work in the Baroque repertoire, a set of four violin concertos that vividly depict the changing moods and imagery of the seasons through music of extraordinary colour and imagination. This recording features Korean violinist Kyung-Wha Chung in a performance of characteristic warmth and vitality, reissued on Warner Classics.

Each concerto is accompanied by a sonnet, traditionally attributed to Vivaldi himself, that describes the scenes the music illustrates. Spring opens with its famous birdsong melody, one of the most recognisable themes in all classical music. Summer builds from languid heat to a dramatic thunderstorm. Autumn evokes the harvest celebration and the hunt. Winter captures both the biting cold and the warmth of shelter. Chung's playing brings fire and eloquence to these endlessly inventive scores.
