Renaud Capuçon - Vivaldi- Les 4 Saisons (2022/2025) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

"While avoiding the more gimmicky extremes [in The Four Seasons], there is no lack of character as soloist or conductor from Renaud Capuçon…These galant style pieces [by Chevalier de Saint-Georges] are just as virtuosic as the Italian’s, but emphasising elegant joie-de-vivre more than drama. Capuçon is a wonderful advocate, clearly relishing their challenges."
- BBC Music Magazine

Violin master Renaud Capuçon took his time to approach Vivaldi's "Four Season", a behemoth of the violin repertoire, but has finally released his rendition alongside two concertos composed in Paris by Chevalier de Saint-George (1745-1799).

“For years, I refused to play it. I’d heard it too much in the corridors of the Métro in Paris and as holding music on the phone. But once I’d accepted to play it, I was blown away by the power of the music … I realised that it’s famous because it’s amazing! It’s a masterpiece. I’ve now played it frequently with Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne and it feels fresh and new every time.”
