Vivaldi's Four Seasons
Who’s on stage
Royal Northern Sinfonia make their Kings Place debut, with Artistic Partner Maria Włoszczowska directing and stepping into the solo spot.
What they’re playing
It’s got barking dogs, people shivering and stamping their feet to keep warm, singing birds, rustic bagpipes… and on the tune front, just banger after banger. There’s a reason why Vivaldi’s Four Seasons is an evergreen audience favourite. Despite being written 300 years ago and popping up everywhere from call centre hold lines to elevator music to countless ads, it’s music that, heard live, always sounds totally box-fresh.
