Climate Changes in Music

Seasons' rotation, as most natural phenomena, fascinates man throughout the ages and leaves plausibly an imprint in Art. The lively string quintet Quitarco presents three creations inspired by the Four Seasons, one created in the 18th century, another in the 19th century and one in the 20th century. Vivaldi depicts in a naturalistic way episodes of each seasons; David contemplates them through a romantic prism while Piazzola links them sensually with the urban context of Buenos Aires.
