Album Description:
Grammy Award-winning violinist Joshua Bell, who has enchanted audiences for two decades with his breathtaking playing and tone of rare opulence, has recorded Antonio Vivaldi's concertos The Four Seasons. Widely considered as one of the premiere violinists of his generation, Bell is joined on this studio release by the celebrated musicians of the Academy of St.Martin in the Fields, who toured the work with him prior to the recording sessions. This recording of The Four Seasons is coupled with another masterpiece of Baroque virtuosity, Giuseppe Tartini's The Devil's Trill. The liner notes by Linda Kobler explain the curious genesis of Tartini's piece and the indisputable place of Vivaldi's concertos in the history of sonata composition.

Bell's interpretation (in spite of the adulation in the liner notes) sounds less like an "individual interpretation" and more like the Suzuki method of approaching The Four Seasons. This particular grouping of Vivaldi's work is ... Read More

This recording is perhaps one of the finest I've ever heard. The orchestra is crisp, clear and doesn't overpower the lead violinist. Joshua Bell is simply at his best. I would highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys Vivaldi's Four Seasons.
