The Four Seasons Amsterdam Sinfonietta & Candida Thompson

In Locatelli’s graceful Concerto grosso, the musicians can shine in short solo passages. Vivaldi, who was also a brilliant violinist like his contemporary Locatelli, shows his mastery in The Four Seasons. In its day, this classical work was already enormously popular. It evokes scenes of babbling brooks, singing birds, a barking dog, buzzing flies, storms, drunken dancers, frozen landscapes and a crackling winter fire. Please note: this concert at Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ has sold out.
