The famous The Four Seasons by Antonio Vivaldi, published in Amsterdam in 1725, achieved such immense success that they almost overshadowed Vivaldi’s other concertos (more than five hundred of them!). While their popularity owes much to their particularly expressive and virtuosic programmatic music, Vivaldi was already a celebrated master sought after throughout Europe, and his operatic triumphs had placed him among the foremost Italian composers. He was especially admired and performed in France, and was even commissioned by the French ambassador in Venice to compose works in honor of Louis XV.

These masterpieces will be brought vividly to life by the Orchestre de l’Opéra Royal, led from the first violin desk by its director Andrés Gabetta, a true virtuoso of the instrument. In The Four Seasons, he proves irresistible and dazzling — prince of the summer skies and icy demon of winter alike!
