Michael Christie, conducting
Calin Ovidiu Lupanu, violin
VIVALDI The Four Seasons
BACH Fantasia and Fugue
Mendelssohn Symphony No. 4, "Italian"
Led by Michael Christie, Music Director of the Brooklyn Philharmonic and the Phoenix Symphony, the Cso starts the New Year with some of the most famous, most beloved pieces of the Baroque repertoire. Vivaldi's four brief violin concertos bring the beauty of nature into the concert hall as they musically evoke the seasons of the year. Bach's Fantasia and Fugue in C minor, composed originally for organ, was later transcribed for orchestra by British Romantic composer Edward Elgar.
Written more than a century after "The Four Seasons," Mendelssohn's Fourth Symphony celebrates the warmth and romance of Italy, where the composer found "the supreme joy in life." Mendelssohn wrote to his sister from Rome, "The 'Italian' symphony is making great progress. It will be the jolliest piece I have ever done..."
