(The Virtuosi di Roma broadcast bjf arrangement with S. A. Gorlinsky, Ltd.) The first four of Vivaldi's twelve solo violin concertos, Op. 8, are musical pictures of the seasons. Each is prefaced by a sonnet (the lines of which are printed over the sections of the music) describing various flora, fauna, and climatic conditions which the music is intended to portray.
