Organ concert “Bravo Vivaldi! "The Seasons" and other writings "

The concert of the virtuoso Petersburg organist Maria Lobetskaya-Lebedeva is dedicated to the 340th anniversary of the birth of the great composer, whose music is in demand and loved at all times.

The indefatigable red-haired abbot, who wrote over 700 works, Antonio Vivaldi lived a comfortable but hard life. The priest, an outstanding violin virtuoso, teacher and composer, composing with truly cosmic speed, was extraordinary and eccentric. After the production of his opera Furious Roland, his friends began to call the composer ... frantic. Creativity Vivaldi studied the great Bach, who shifted a number of his instrumental concertos for organ with an indescribable skill. Two of them will be performed in a concert.

The most famous work of the Venetian "The Seasons", a cycle of four violin concertos, is presented in the author's version of Maria Lobetskaya-Lebedeva for organ. Each of the concerts is preceded by a sonnet, building a kind of program. It is assumed that the author of the poems is Vivaldi himself. Viva Vivaldi - music for all, distinctive, bright, iridescent with various colors of the richest musical spectrum.
