Description
Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" is one of the greatest evergreens of all time.
The sound painting of the Venetian violin virtuoso simply casts a spell over everyone.
David Gorol and Theophil Heinke go one better - their arrangement for violin and organ makes use of the richness of sound of the queen of instruments and adds a whole new dimension to Vivaldi's already broad palette.
In addition, there is the A minor Concerto, which Bach had already transferred to the organ. The fact that a historical jewel, the famous Trost organ in Waltershausen, can also be heard in its original sound makes this brand-new Super Audio CD a triple listening pleasure.
The adaptation is by no means trivial: the highly virtuosic violin part remains untouched. In favour of a brilliant expression, a retuning to the historical pitch of the organ was dispensed with - a challenge for Heinke, who thus has to orchestrate in extremely unusual keys.
