Description
Vivaldi's The Four Seasons is one of the most famous and frequently performed compositions, resonating with audiences in both grand concert halls and everyday settings. This release gives us an exciting new arrangement for violin and guitar.
"The 4 Seasons by Antonio Vivaldi... are probably the most famous and often performed composition ever written. While you can hear it in the origin version in the great concert halls just as well as background music in a lift, most of us have some personal hearing memory about them. For me they have been a great companion over dozens of years, and I must say every time I come back to performing them I'm once and again truly mesmorised by the genius masterpieces. It is Programmmusik based on beautiful short poems which I find inspiring both as listener and as a performer." -- Linus Roth
'The combination of bowed and plucked string sonorities is most effective in moments of intimacy.' – BBC Music Magazine (3 stars)
'This initiative has been undertaken skillfully, and with a high level of musicianship. Both musicians are of the highest calibre, and provide a revelatory performance of the music in this iteration. The magnificent tone extracted from the 1703 Stradivarius 'Dancla' violin is one of the best to be heard on recordings.' – Music Web International
