The best

Alexander Mendez | South Pasadena, CA United States | 09/03/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If I had to pick my favorite interpretation of Vivaldi's Four Seasons this recording would match or maybe even supersede the recording by Fabio Biondi and his Europa Galante. There is wild abandon in this recording and every artifice is used to create a very exotic rendition of these overrecorded concerti. In short, this is a recording for the jaded Vivaldi conoisseur who needs a bit of surprise to reawaken interest in this part of the Vivaldian oeuvre.

The recording of RV 128 is also the best one I've ever heard. The violin simply cries and makes you feel a bit of pleasant musical pain."
