Description
A Four Seasons concert in Florence suits a room like this auditorium at Santa Croce al Tempio, an intimate setting with centuries of history around it. For about an hour the Florence Baroque Academy Ensemble plays Baroque and Classical chamber music, with Kevin Mucaj as violin soloist.
The programme is built around Vivaldi's best-known work and a few companions:
- The Four Seasons by Antonio Vivaldi
- A Little Night Music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
- a Vivaldi string concerto in G major, RV 151
- Air in G Major by Johann Sebastian Bach
You do not need to know classical music to enjoy the evening: lifelong admirers of the genre will find a well-chosen selection, and newcomers an easy way in. The Four Seasons is among the best-loved masterpieces of Italian music.
The ticket covers your admission to the concert and the venue's printed programme. It is a simple plan for a night out that is about music rather than sightseeing.
