The Four Seasons

Celebrate The Four Seasons as it was experienced in Antonio Vivaldi's own time. With an acclaimed recording by the Philharmonia Virtuosi, this unique book-and-CD package also includes the series of four sonnets that Vivaldi originally published with the score and praised as "an absolutely clear declaration of all the things that are depicted in these works." Period masterworks from The Metropolitan Museum of Art perfectly match the sonnets, capturing the rustling leaves and icy blasts, flowery meadows and balmy winds. With this collection of music, poetry, and art, enjoy the full spirit of Antonio Vivaldi: The Four Seasons. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
