2.0 out of 5 stars Strange and embarrassing, December 3, 2001

This review is from: Vivaldi: Four Seasons/Concerti/Sinfonia (Audio CD)
Listen to Spring mvmt 1. Who came up with the idea to use a heavy down beat at the end of the main melodic phrase? And the canaries singing is eccentric and utterly ineffective. Listen to Summer mvmt 1. My gosh was Alison Bury totally exhausted from a late night party when she made this recording?? Her playing is totally denergizing. Listen to winter mvmt 1. Although Holloway is very good, the orchestra fails to match his playing. The mvmt completely lacks suspense. Overall this recording is uncommitted and a waste of the 4 talented, well-known violinists.

I am very shocked at this recording by Parrott since I LOVED his minimalist recording of Bach's Orchestral Suites with the Boston Early Music Festival Orchestra. There are many excellent recordings of Vivaldi's "Four Season" but unfortunately this is far from one of them.
