Vivaldi's 'Four Seasons' are amongst the most beautiful and widely-known Baroque masterpieces. Each of the four violin concertos is preceded by a sonnet which characterises the season depicted in the concerto. The poems are thought to be by Vivaldi himself. With explanatory texts and full color illustrations, the edition is aimed at young and adult pianists. The easily playable arrangements and original pieces provide an ideal introduction to this work.
