We journey to Venice to hear Vivaldi’s immortal work, The Four Seasons, brilliantly rendered for virtuoso violin; here, a showcase for Associate Concertmaster Helen Kim. In a musical first, Vivaldi captured all the characteristic moments of each season — slippery ice, spring thaws, summer storms and glorious autumnal fruit. We stay with Vivaldi for his Gloria, adding more jubilation to the occasion with the Seattle Symphony Chorale. The program is completed with Bach’s filigree cantata for soprano and trumpet — a brilliant spotlight for Principal Trumpet David Gordon.
