There's nothing quite like Vivaldi’s masterpiece! Get ready to hear the four amazing concertos known as The Four Seasons, composed for violin and strings, that represent scenes of nature in music, inspired by each season of the year.

Vivaldi's Four Seasons in the most magnificent concert venues in the Netherlands

Antonio Vivaldi composed a number of arias for the main character in his opera La verità in cimento: Rosane. Soprano Olga Zinovieva, with her special singing voice and charisma, is uniquely qualified to perform these jewels from Baroque music. She also performs Vivaldi's hit aria: Sposa son disprezzata!
