Royal Northern Sinfonia Summer Tour: Piazzolla's Four Seasons
Fiery. Dramatic. Full of life.
Who’s on stage
Royal Northern Sinfonia and Artistic Partner Maria Włoszczowska join forces for a meeting of baroque fire and Buenos Aires heat.
What they’re playing
Vivaldi’s Concerto for Oboe and Bassoon opens bright and nimble, before Geminiani’s ‘La Folia’ twists and turns through bold variations. Zelenka’s Hipocondrie brings drama and bite and Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 5 sparkles with energy. To finish, Piazzolla’s Four Seasons of Buenos Aires – pulsing, smoky, and full of life.
