"Vivaldi" is the exceptional new recording of the much loved Vivaldi "Four Seasons" by rising Italian-Serbian-French violinist Luka Faulisi, taking on the piece with his bright, youthful energy.For this album, he collaborated with the excellent Polish baroque ensemble (oh!) Orkiestra Historyczna, directed by concert master and ensemble leader Martyna Pastuzka.The combination of Luka's romantic sound, formed in French impressionistic repertoire, and the ensemble's energetic and forceful take let the well-known masterpiece shine in a new light.Providing an additional feature, Luka has chosen three corresponding romantic pieces, sitting between the Vivaldi concertos to provide a change of perspective - the Catalan traditional Song of the birds, Lili Boulanger's Nocturne and Tchaikovsky's Autumn Song.
