LE 4 STAGIONI di VIVALDI

THE VIRTUOSI OF THE PUGLIA PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA
DANIELA CARABELLESE, violin - MOLLY SALVEMINI, violin

Great Baroque music returns to the spotlight in Taranto with an extraordinary event celebrating the 340th anniversary of the birth of Johann Sebastian Bach and paying homage to the genius of Antonio Vivaldi.

The evening will open with the Concerto for Two Violins, Strings, and Continuo in D minor BWV 1043, one of the masterpieces of the violin repertoire. With its perfect balance between counterpoint and lyricism, this concerto is an extraordinary example of Bach's talent in creating an intense dialogue between the two solo violins, performed by Daniela Carabellese and Molly Salvemini. From the lively imitative play of the first movement, to the poignant beauty of the Largo ma non tanto, to the brilliant energy of the final Allegro, this musical piece enchants and engages the listener with its refined sound architecture.

The second part of the concert will be entirely dedicated to one of the most famous musical cycles of all time: "The Four Seasons" by Antonio Vivaldi. This collection of four violin and orchestra concertos is an exciting journey through the succession of seasons, painted with incredible vibrancy through music. Molly Salvemini, the solo violinist, will perform this extraordinary score, transporting the audience from the freshness of spring, with its birdsong and babbling brooks, to the intensity of summer, with its scorching sun and sudden storms. Festive dances of autumn follow, and finally, the harsh winter, with its biting frost and the warmth of the household fire.
