Recomposed by Max Richter: Vivaldi – The Four Seasons

Baroque DNA spliced with modern minimalism. Familiar Vivaldi themes are looped, stretched, and bolstered by subtle electronic pulses to create something entirely new.

August 31, 2012 · Deutsche Grammophon

A vibrant and propulsive reimagining that balances baroque elegance with modern rhythmic urgency.

Moments Worth Listening For

The way Spring 1 transforms the familiar melody into a shimmering, hypnotic loop that feels like a record skipping in slow motion.

The aggressive, percussive intensity of Summer 3 where the strings take on a jagged, almost electronic rhythmic quality.

Winter 1's introduction of a low-end Moog pulse that grounds the icy violin stabs in a modern, subterranean weight.
