Light, bright, and cheerful, "The Four Seasons" by Antonio Vivaldi is some of the most familiar of all early 18th century music, featured in numerous films and television commercials. But what is its significance, and why does it sound that way? Betsy Schwarm uncovers the underlying narrative of this musical masterpiece.

In this video there is shown a type of music that attempts to musically render an extra-musical narrative. Such genre is often called program (or programme) music. Vivaldi's "Four seasons" is one of the most famous examples of program music but there were many more especially in the XIXth century when many symphonic poems were composed which are program music by definition. Paganini's caprices don't contain specific program or poem to explain what they are about but that doesn't mean that thay are not program music or at least some of them. E. g. caprice no.9 is called "The hunt" - violinist plays first on upper strings which imitate the flutes then on lower strings which imitate the horns; caprice no. 13 is nicknamed "the devil's laughter"; caprice 14 imitating brass fanfares; caprice 17 which personally reminds me of a quarrel between a couple; no. 20 imitating bagpipes. In others you may find some folk Italian melodies or arias. And all of them are full of the most sophisticated violin techniques many of which were invented by Paganini himself. Violinists til these day struggle with playing them but nowadays there are quite many who manage to do it succesfully. Paganini dedicated them "alli artisti" - to the artists so I guess as long as there are daring artists Paganini caprices will thrive.

In case you're wondering, the person in the animation is suppose to be Antonio Vivaldi himself. He was known as the Red Priest because of his long red hair. Yes, Vivaldi was a ginger. His main instrument was the violin. The second movement of Winter is suppose to be rain. The pizzicato of the string imitates the raindrops on the window.

Why should you listen to Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" ? Because it's one of the best musics of all time. Do you need more reasons ? It's around 40 minutes of pure emotions. It's not just a song, it is an experience. Something you can listen and feel.

That’s subjective. However, as the video said shines at the fact in can tell a story, which is my favourite type of music (program music). The only thing I will criticize though is its small variety of instrumentation since that limits the potential of storytelling (i.e. timbre) in the piece for me. Because of that, I think some modern orchestral film scores sound better (but probably not to the same genius as Vivaldi with three instruments) if the composer can utilize the potential of the instruments to bring a variety of textures together to support the story. While Vivaldi’s piece is genius, I encourage you to listen to the soundtrack of the movies you’ve watched since in a way, they can sound “better” than this piece. In my opinion.

My school always plays it at our annual talent show, after 10 years of Four Seasons we all know them by heart and can point out which season is being played. I didn't know they had poems with it, I'll make sure to read them along with Four Seasons next time I hear it.

@@the7thfalsestart Also Classical is a product of Baroque. Despite the differences, there were several similarities. Its like comparing the child of someone to the father who both do not appear the same, but the child came from the father. Same with these styles. They are more closely related than lets say eastern Asian compositions before the advent of westernization. Those music styles would be completely different in harmony, tuning, form, melodic sequencing, etc. They may not even use any of these functions. I argue the 3 western eras mentioned above are more cloesly related than other genres. Alas, in the end all music is related because it's all vibration
