Les 4 Saisons de Vivaldi Extraits - Prélude et Allegro de Kreisler

Fritz Kreisler – Prelude and AllegroWritten in the style of Gaetano Pugnani, this virtuosic piece pays tribute to the elegance of the baroque violin while blending in Kreisler's Romantic sensibility.

By turns solemn and brilliant, this Prelude and Allegro has become one of the most beloved pieces in the encore repertoire. Ludwig van Beethoven – Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 61 Composed in 1806, this concerto is one of the major works of the violin repertoire.

Both noble and radiant, it combines grandeur with the intimate lyricism of the solo violin. Its poetic depth and balance make it a pinnacle of concerto writing. Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons is a set of four violin concerti, composed in 1723.

It is arguably Vivaldi's best-known composition and the most performed piece of music in the world. It is a violin concerto in which the soloist plays accompanied by a chamber orchestra. The content of each movement varies and evokes the season it relates to.

For example, winter is punctuated by pizzicato notes on the high strings, evoking icy rain, while summer conjures up a storm in the final movement, foreshadowed by rumbling thunder heard several times throughout the movement.
