Vivaldi's Four Seasons is one of the world's most adored pieces, irresistible music that paints a vivid picture with baroque clarity. The pallet consists of solo violin, string orchestra, and harpsichord, while the varied moods of the year provide the subject. There are many recordings of these beloved concertos, several of them excellent, but there is no match for this one by Itzhak Perlman, one of the most popular violinists of all time, here leading the orchestra as well.
