Heard this performed by a chamber orchestra in an old church in Vienna pre-pandemic. It was the most amazing musical experience of my life - totally unforgettable. Literally made me cry. I love learning more about this music. ❤️
@@devolapopola8289 It’s a completely different experience hearing the music live, feeling the emotions of the players, seeing the sweat pour off their faces as they put their hearts into the performance. Hearing it with my family on a perfect warm summer evening, performed in a centuries-old building with amazing acoustics, only enriched the experience.
That was a fun program, and the explanations of what Vivaldi was doing compositionally added to the enjoyment and appreciation of his beautiful music. Thanks
I will never experience The Four Seasons in the same way again. The series also encouraged me to attend more to what is actually happening in the music.
The 4 seasons was a cure to my anxiety and depression, very specific verses touched me so deeply however I couldn't understand a meaning, thank you for the show and for the illustrations ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have always enjoyed the seemingly unique opening to Summer as performed by Anne-Sophie Mutter. Her version feels like it is played almost twice as slow as every other recording I have heard of the same piece. Having grown up in the hot humid south of the USA, the slow languid almost torpid tempo her opening conveys resonates deeply with me and feels much more expressively accurate than the standard tempo. Just a minor detail, but such a powerful effect!
Wow. Love the interpretation/explanation and then the music. I really don't have the right words. Thank you for the joy. Am saving some of this deliciousness for another time... when I can be uninterrupted and able to take the time. Sigh.
Amazing. Having watched this video will forever enhance my experience when listening this amazing composition. It gave me the visual aspect needed to see and feel what vivaldi wanted to illustrate.
Bravo and many thanks. Heard part live in Prague several years ago and was moved. NPR’s “Now Hear This” with Scott Yoo was my first explanation. This built on that. Many thanks.
Spectacular! Please teach this in Public Schools to our children! We shouldn't have to make people wait until they're elderly to appreciate the hidden meaning of music. If you have to, hide the cellphone, and DRAG the kids to the concert! They'll thank you some day.
@Prof. Weed Nothing would make me happier to know I was wrong. But when we hear about "cut backs", it's always the arts that are cut first. Please tell me I'm wrong.
@Prof. Weed , because we hear everyday the trash the majority of people listen to, and how increasingly trashy the ads everywhere, a great indication of what marketing has found to be what the highest percentage of the public likes, and everywhere one goes, have adapted to the terrible subculture that keeps growing. Once one grows up in a classical environment, there is absolutely no way one can turn to pseudo music and enjoy it.
Hair-raisingly good, My neighbor has a pig and a cow named Piganini and Vivaldi. When I asked him why he named them that, he said, you should hear them play fiddle.
And later, he gave his monkey a type writer and he wrote, Animal Farm. And, everyone went home and no-one had any idea of what they were talking about. Jam and bun's in the morning? Hmm

I think it more likely Vivaldi had a general idea of what he wanted to evoke in each concerto (like in the concerto la notte which doesn't have an associated text) and added the sonnets and extracted the captions later - they are afterthoughts
@@danielboard9510 How could it be a metaphor yet have no meaning? You seem to be undertaking your name sake's labours, focused on miscomprehension, with equal success. Futility is yours for the taking. What is a droob? Mirrors show the answer.
Mr. Maull is an amazing teacher! I've always loved this concerto but his commentary unlocked a whole new level of appreciation. Thank you so much!

One of my all time favorite composers .. I play Four Seasons every Christmas 💞
The best "descriptive" version of Vivaldis 4 Seasons I ever witnessed. Thank you so much! 🙏🇩🇪
That was a fun program, and the explanations of what Vivaldi was doing compositionally added to the enjoyment and appreciation of his beautiful music. Thanks
Hearing what Vivaldi was thinking is just wonderful. I need to go find his writings.
My favorite composer. I'm so glad you guys did this video!
Vivaldi is my favorite. Thanks so much for this!
I will never experience The Four Seasons in the same way again. The series also encouraged me to attend more to what is actually happening in the music.
I love ❤ Vivaldi and the Four Seasons is probably my favorite.
Adding Vivaldi's intentions made it so much more enjoyable.

Thank you all for an amazing musical experience and lessons on how to deepen mu musical appreciation. Boundless gratitude.
This is sweet and fascinating! Thank you SO much for explaining this piece of glorious music.
Thanks for this masterpiece lesson. So Beautiful demonstrated. Now I can show my children and have them illustrate through their art. Much obliged
Absolutely amazing ....
Thanks for the program! ❤

Absolutely wonderful! This brought such joy to my aging (classical pianist) mother... thank you for sharing!
Amazing. Having watched this video will forever enhance my experience when listening this amazing composition. It gave me the visual aspect needed to see and feel what vivaldi wanted to illustrate.
Bravi in every way! Thank you so much!
Thank you for enlightening us with this series. Also thanks for sharing your gifts.
I wish I had watched this programme before I watched the live concert in Hohensalzburg. I'd have enjoyed it infinitely more !
Perfecto 🤌🏼
Amazing! Will we also get to learn about part 2 (Autumn & Winter) ?

My 9-year-old is listening to this with me and loving it!
@@lorigoshert6667 Great! Next, try "Peter and the Wolf". It is an introduction to the orchestra. Kids love that too.

Agree! Support your local orchestras!
Nice… You are a Genius! Thanks for the explanation.

4:48 - Just as an aside, the “f” holes of the principal viola’s instrument have an unusual shape.
I think it more likely Vivaldi had a general idea of what he wanted to evoke in each concerto (like in the concerto la notte which doesn't have an associated text) and added the sonnets and extracted the captions later - they are afterthoughts
I wonder what the interpretation would be for parrots and mockingbirds.
Well, the mockingbird would tell you , to shut the fuck up and then the parrot, would repeat it.

This sounds and looks as if it is pitched at a 10 - 12 years old audience. It also sounds/looks like a revivalist tent show using classical music.
@@danielboard9510 I wrote that it was seemed aimed at a young audience and was evangelical in tone...like a Sunday School circus.

I don't need some freak to explain to me why I enjoy listening to any particular piece of musical composition.
Love to you.
The "freak" you are referring to was Vivaldi himself, who wrote the parts explaining what everything was.
