"As a New Englander, I have always reveled in the passing of the seasons, and this music provides a perfect soundtrack to the wonders of nature. My mother has another version of this Vivaldi masterpiece by Itzhak Pearlman, but honestly I think this recording is better and more enjoyable. The three extra concertos for violin included on this disc are real treats, especially the Concerto for 2 violins in A minor. The liner notes also include the sonnets Vivaldi wrote to accompany his music, which I think are really fascinating. This may be a cheap cd, but it has the sound quality of a world class recording!"
This CD sold me on violin music!

"I am not a connoisseur of classical music by any means. I just needed something to drown out the other noise in the office and a coworker lent me this CD. I am definitely buying it; the music is beautiful! Very upbeat and perfect for helping me focus on my work."
