Vivaldi’s Four Seasons is arguably the most popular classical music ever written. The vivid musical imagery Vivaldi paints with a master’s brush is mind-boggling, especially considering that the instrumentation is limited to a small ensemble of string instruments. It may leave the listener questioning, “If Vivaldi were alive today, what would his twenty-first-century Four Seasons sound like? What would his musical imagery be for drought, floods, and wildfires? How could he make a violin sound like a cracking ice sheet or a pine bark beetle munching away at its vulnerable host?”
Utah Council for Citizen Diplomacy is delighted to invite the Vivaldi virtuosi to return to the stage after a year’s absence and present you with this glorious music. We begin our journey with “La Senna Festeggiante” (“Festivities on the Seine”) and travel through the four seasons, concluding the evening with Bach’s beloved “Air” from his third orchestral suite.
Featuring special guest sonnet narrator Doug Fabrizio, host and producer of KUER’s RadioWest, who for decades has been one of the most familiar and popular voices in Utah.
