Event Description

"American violinist Melissa White has enchanted audiences and critics around the world as both a soloist and a chamber musician. Hear her lead Vivaldi’s popular The Four Seasons, a series of violin concerti depicting each of the seasons. Even though Vivaldi famously said, 'There are no words, there is only music there,' his most famous composition is actually based on a series of sonnets and can arguably be considered among the first pieces to tell a story through music."
