Vivaldiana

Antonio Vivaldi is best known for his iconic The Four Seasons, but his work extends far beyond this famous collection of seasonal compositions. Although a violin player by trade, Vivaldi was adept at writing for all instruments and musical genres. His style evolved over his life, with his late works adopting aspects of not only the galant—the truly hip style of the day—but also a good dose of the fantastic and the bizarre. Featuring Colburn Conservatory talent in a breathtaking display of virtuosity, this program explores the non-seasoned sides of the Venetian master.
