Occasional listeners love it, musicians often cannot stand it anymore: sure is that Vivaldi “Four Seasons” is a masterpiece.
We’ll try to rediscover it, in a very unusual version, with the friend and mandolin star Avi Avital in the Circle1 art gallery in Berlin.

It will be then joined by the Corale Gazzotti conducted by Giulia Manicardi for Buxtehude’s Cantata “Das neugeborne Kindelein” and Bach’s Missa Brevis BWV 235 (oboe obbligato: Magdalena Karolak).
