The Four Seasons 韋瓦第 四季

維瓦爾第多產，創作了大量器樂和聲樂作品以及近 50 部歌劇。在他創作的 500 首協奏曲中，他生前和今天最受歡迎的是被稱為《四季》（Le Quattro Stagioni）的四首協奏曲，這些作品在 1725 年於阿姆斯特丹出版之前曾以手稿形式廣泛流傳，出版時還為每首協奏曲的曲目添加了解釋性詩歌。這套協奏曲是獻給海頓第一位贊助人的表弟文澤爾-馮-莫爾津伯爵的。扉頁上寫道："維瓦爾第本人是伯爵在義大利的指揮家，是皮亞塔協奏曲的指揮家，也是黑森-達姆施塔特國墓菲力浦親王的照相機指揮家"

原文簡介:
Vivaldi was prolific, composing vast quantities of instrumental and vocal music and nearly 50 operas. Of the 500 concertos he wrote, the most popular in his life-time as well as today were the four known as Le Quattro Stagioni - The Four Seasons, works that had circulated widely in manuscript before being published in Amsterdam in 1725, when explanatory poems were added to clarify the programme of each concerto. The set was dedicated to Count Wenzel von Morzin, a cousin of Haydn's first patron. The title page describes Vivaldi himself as the Count's "maestro in Italia", as "Maestro de' Concerti" of the Pieta, as well as "Maestro di Capella di Camera" of Prince Philip, Land grave of Hesse-Darmstadt.
