Four Seasons

Description

The four colorful seasons of Lina Tur Bonet!The Spanish violinist Lina Tur Bonet loves great challenges: Bach, Biber, Corelli, Vivaldi. She has already devoted two albums to the "prete rosso," which have captivated audiences and critics alike. With this recording, she ascends to the "Vivaldi Olympus" and dedicates herself to the "Four Seasons." To live up to her reputation, she reveals new facets of this oft-performed work, offers surprisingly fresh listening impressions, and delivers an expressive, emotionally charged interpretation. The violinist contrasts Vivaldi with Astor Piazzolla's Four Seasons. Although the idea is not new, Tur Bonet follows her own path here: she performs Piazzolla's work in the original quartet instrumentation and has enlisted highly virtuosic Argentine tango specialists. The result is tango in its purest form: gentle and rough, sad and wild, rhythmic and free. A successful mirroring!
