Joy returns in the third movement with a Baroque hunt and one of the most charming pieces in classical music. With softly arching strings, you can hear the cooler air of autumn arrive.

The second movement takes the form of a beautiful Adagio molto. As the solo violin lines become more virtuosic, you can hear the dancing and jollity, with a good amount of Italian wine in the mix! You can hear the music fall to sleep before rejoining the dance. The first movement begins at a country dance at a harvest festival.

The concerto has the conventional three movements, taking you through fast-slow-fast, all painting a glorious pastoral scene. Let's dive in, movement by movement to his ' Autumn' concerto, which many regard as one of the greatest works in classical music. The great Italian composer was a genius in the way that he used music to deftly paint that scene and evoke a seasonal mood. They were striking for the time: modern, virtuosic and energetic, they used music to evoke a scene and tell a story. Vivaldi's The Four Seasons are four violin concertos composed in Venice, Italy, at the height of the Baroque era in 1720. That wonderful hint of autumn is in the air, and it's time for Vivaldi.

The leaves turn golden, the mornings are crisp, you turn the heating on for the first time in months. The great Baroque composer used music to paint an idyllic country scene and gave us a timeless work of art.
