Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Grammy Award-winning violinist Joshua Bell, who has enchanted audiences for two decades with his breathtaking playing and tone of rare opulence, has recorded Antonio Vivaldi's concertos The Four Seasons. Widely considered as one of the premiere violinists of his generation, Bell is joined on this studio release by the celebrated musicians of the Academy of St.Martin in the Fields, who toured the work with him prior to the recording sessions. This recording of The Four Seasons is coupled with another masterpiece of Baroque virtuosity, Giuseppe Tartini's The Devil's Trill. The liner notes by Linda Kobler explain the curious genesis of Tartini's piece and the indisputable place of Vivaldi's concertos in the history of sonata composition.

- well played, that's about it
Mr Bell can rarely play in anything but an excellent and clean fashion, and the same can be said of St. Martin-in-the-Fields orchestra. But in the case of this recording of Vivaldi's most famous set of concertos, there it ends.

- Seasons of the Wall Street CEO
Vivaldi's Op. 8, 4 of the beginning of those 12 violin concerti headed 'Four Seasons' were preceded by poems depicting each in turn.
Mr. Bell's new album comes in a luxurious package in an attempt to foster the mood of the different seasons.
Alas, the outcome is vastly different from the poetic Italian setting. Rather, these are well-articulated pieces, played with mastery in terms of technique, but not interpretative skill.
First of all, Mr. Bell has not much idea about the musical ... Read More

- Joshua Bell plays Vivaldi's Four Seasons and the Devil's Trill Sonata
Although nearly everybody who owns at least dozen classical CDs, has already Vivaldi's Four Seasons in his collection. In spite of this, I do not hesitate to chose Joshua Bell's version with the excellent orchestra as a present, The most charming composition and particularly Bell's wonderful performance as soloist deserves it; not to forget that also on this CD he plays the without any flaw the technically extremely difficult Devil's Trill Sonata by Tartini. It is good to hear Bell also masterly performing ... Read More

- wonderful rendition of an old favorite
this is a beautifully precise and moving version of vivaldi's much loved and most famous work. joshua bell never fails to please and the st. martin in the fields symphony does a lovely job as well. i have several versions of this work and so far this is my favorite.
