In its second release on Linn, The Avison Ensemble explores the rich diversity and delights of all twelve concertos in Vivaldi's Opus 8. It includes the composer's most famous work, 'The Four Seasons', which contains some of the most instantly recognizable music ever composed and is today viewed as a pinnacle of musical art. Directed by Pavlo Beznosiuk, The Avison Ensemble presents an insightful and spirited performance of the masterpiece. Each of the twelve concertos is extremely demanding and Beznosiuk's virtuosity permeates throughout each performance. The thematic elements within each innovative work results in a collection that is colourful, fresh and emotionally charged and a true testament of Vivaldi's ability for invention and variation. Beznosiuk states: 'The Four Seasons are well-known, well-loved and great fun to play, but let us not forget how richly characterful the other eight concerti are also. Throughout the set Vivaldi's musical energy vibrates within us, connecting us to him in an irresistible, celebratory collection'.
