She played this whole piece without a paper reference and did it with skill and confidence. Splendid performance by the orchestra and Brava Alexandra. Bravo Vivaldi.

I keep coming back to this performance. Any other group playing this masterpiece are great, no doubt. But these musicians have a version that surpasses them all. I thought every orchestra playing the same symphony were playing it exactly the same but this performance has a nuance and subtlety that makes a fantastic set of music phenomenal. The main cello player has such a unique style of playing and boy is he ever a talent and then some. I cannot get through watching this without tears, it literally touches my soul profoundly. I'm in awe that a person could think up this music, no other life form in the universe could scale these heights.

This is the type of music that is for stress relief, to sleep, to study, and just to listen to.

For more than 20 years I have been listening to Vivaldi's The 4 Seasons in the laboratory, when I need to relax, read or concentrate. After listening to many interpreters, my favorite interpreter was Itzhak Perlman and I spent many years listening only his interpretation, because I noticed minimal differences in other interpreters that I did not like, I don't know why, since I am neither a musician nor an expert. About 6 or 7 years ago I heard this interpretation by Alexandra Conunova, it simply fascinated me and it became my favorite interpretation, because it surpasses what seemed insurmountable. For me it is an interpretation, simply perfect but as I say it is my taste and my opinion. The sound quality also influences since the Itzhak Perlman concert was from 2006. In any case, how great VIVALDI is, I can't imagine what he must have felt creating something so impressive and perfect.

I would like to thank those great people for playing VIVALDI perfectly, and I would like to thank the one who uploaded this on KZbin so we can all enjoy this great music.

This has been my go to music to help me stay sane for months now

[@sixsierra]

Cello guy is the real MVP here. What an incredible work together. If I were the soloist I would literally kiss that guy right after finishing this masterpiece. Eureka.

[@Elif-fc7uf]

Beautiful.. The main violinist is clearly very talented but let's not overlook the extraordinary performance of the other musicians in the orchestra. And a big thank you to whoever uploaded this precious video.

[@valp1502]

I am speechless.

[@georgesix]

Afortunados los que presenciaron ese concierto en vivo. Si verlo en video es tremendamente emocionante no podría imaginar lo que sentiría estando ahí. La interpretación de la solista es soberbia.

Reminds us of Northern Brittany 45 years ago, seeing the local farmers collecting seaweed off the beach and a poor old carthorse dragging tons of it up the sand dunes under grey skies. we were young then and our kids, all 4 of them, were all under 10. Wonderful memories. We're pushing 80 now and I'm looking after my wife, practically wheelchair bound, and, for good measure, has vascular dementure, single handed. Nobody can do it like I can. Please, make the most of life.

[@johnfoley8260]

We'va all probably heard any number of performances of this, but this one really brings it to life.

[@unnintube]

My God. I'm speechless. So talented, beautiful performance! Just sitting here and overwhelmed. This came up in my feed and now I'm just looking at this, tears in my eyes. 👏 Bravo!!

[@dancnfoo]

Beautiful music played by a beautiful orchestra led by a brilliant violinist. Bravo!

[@kla_ssh4507]

Truly the most beautiful and best interpretation of the Four Seasons I've ever heard, I will never get tired of listening to this version, it's just brilliantly executed.

Long awaited spring is here. Let our first joyful moment be listening to this utter masterpiece.

[@cowboyblacksmith]

I would be balling my eyes out seeing this live, it's just so incredible powerful and beautiful. The sheer skill of these musicians is God like, pure perfection and passion. Classical music hits like no other type of music.

[@varunmarathe7888]

I can hear her breathe, I can see her intensity, I can feel her music. What a magnificent display of music ! Thank You all and also to Vivaldi.
