SocialTwist Tell-a-Friend

The first performance of the work—Violin Concerto No. 2, ‘The American [Four] Seasons’— was so spectacularly played by the new piece’s muse, American violinist Robert McDuffie...that the event turned into one of the most exciting musical evenings of the year.

—Toronto Star

Founded in 1997, the Venice Baroque Orchestra is one of Europe’s finest ensembles devoted to period instrument performance. In this world premiere tour, they join with violinist Robert McDuffie to present two distinct visions of Vivaldi’s master work: first a performance of the original Four Seasons, followed by the McDuffie-commissioned Philip Glass composition, The American Four Seasons.
