LE QUATTRO STAGIONI
ANTONIO VIVALDI (1678-1741)
Le Printemps
L’Été
L’Automne
L’Hiver
Concerto pour hautbois en Do majeur RV 450
Michaela Hrabankova, oboe
Orchestre de l’Opéra Royal
Stefan Plewniak, solo violin & conductor
Vivaldi was already a renowned opera composer in Venice and throughout Italy, but he gained exceptional notoriety throughout Europe when the concerti constituting his Quattro Stagioni were published in Amsterdam. These theme concertos, which embraced the imagination of Arcimboldo, gained top billing in private and public concerts. But their composition for solo violin has impressive virtuosity and expression : Stefan Plewniak becomes both unchained and sensual in them, not giving the Orchestre de l'Opéra Royal any opportunity for respite in intensely sounding out these seasons that
are so emblematic of Baroque Europe !
Recorded from July 14th to 16th 2023 at the Opéra Royal de Versailles.
