Renaud Capucon - Vivaldi: Four Seasons, Chevalier de Saint-Georges: Violin Concertos - Import 180g LP Record

Description:

Renaud Capuçon's "Four Seasons" resonates with a variety of tones! The duo's first full-scale recording (also featuring violin) was highly acclaimed for Arvo Pärt's transcendence of notions of space and time. Their second album is a recording of "Vivaldi: The Four Seasons," a masterpiece among masterpieces. Now that period instruments are the mainstream and there are almost no recordings on modern instruments, the significance of daring to perform on a modern instrument must be questioned. Violin technique and expression are constantly expanding, and the velvety color and expression of the modern violin strings often give the tutti an almost spiritual dimension. Capuçon's vast musical experience and versatile abilities are expressed most importantly in the richness of the songfulness of his playing. However, it is noteworthy that the modern interpretation of this piece is to maintain the tension of the sound by adding or subtracting vibrato, and by adding or subtracting intensity of the sound. Renaud Capuçon's emotional melodies and harmonies, which cannot be expressed by period instruments, are all that he wants to express. Renaud Capuçon, as artistic director, has succeeded in infusing his own ideas and elevating this musical moment to an extraordinary level, yet portraying a naturalistic portrayal without deviating from the orthodox style at all.This performance will be produced in limited quantities as a 180g analog LP version*The LP version will include only "Vivaldi: The Four Seasons"; "Saint-Georges: Violin Concerto" from the CD will not be included.
