Le quattro stagioni (Vivaldi, Antonio)

There is no original work per se conceived by Vivaldi as an inseparable musical set entitled Le quattro stagioni. The so-called 'The Four Seasons' commonly refers to the first four violin concertos originally published in 1725 as Il cimento dell'armonia e dell'inventione, Op.8, each one portraying one of the seasons of the year. See the collection for the entire set (Nos.1-4) or separate pages for each individual concerto listed below.
