Vivaldi. The Four Seasons (+ 4 CD)

At times powerful and overwhelming, at times soothing and quiet, Vivaldi's violin concertos from "The Four Seasons" are some of classical music's best loved works. The wonderful composition leads the way through thoughtfully arranged photographs depicting Europe's unbelievably beautiful seasons.

Music CDs: In addition to Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons" this book offers congenial, musical characterizations of spring, summer, fall and winter -each unique, depending on the era and genre; as interpreted by Sibelius, Beethoven, Debussy and many others.
