Vivaldi's The Four Seasons

OVERVIEW

For the first time in 10 years (you could even say 40 seasons!), Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, one of the original odes to nature, returns to Abravanel Hall. From the ethereal awakening of spring to the serene stillness of winter, our musicians, led by Concertmaster and soloist Madeline Adkins, come together to illustrate nature’s ever-changing beauty.
 
Along with Angel Lam’s new work Please let there be a paradise… and Glazunov’s music from the ballet The Seasons, this concert will transport you through landscapes teeming with life, echoing the gentle whisper of zephyrs, the joyful chirping of birds, and the quiet majesty of falling snow.

Please let there be paradise… was commissioned by the League of American Orchestras with the generous support of the Virginia B. Toulmin Foundation.
