Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Two dazzling picture edits over one sumptuous soundtrack bring new life to Vivaldi's perennial work. Choose between the director's cut with stunning images of the changing seasons, filmed at the National Botanic Garden of Wales, or the performance edit with shots of Julia Fischer and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, in the garden's futuristic glass dome by Norman Foster.

The sensational young violinist Julia Fischer brings a fresh and sparkling interpretation of this popular work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Re-release of Julia Fischer original first DVD, June 2, 2009
By Music Lover (W. Europe , USA) - See all my reviews
This is a re-master of the original DVD which has been sold out for more than a year. I am a Fischer fan, so I am very relief that it is being released again.

Aside from the funny costume for both Julia and the members of St. Martin-In-The-Fields, the music is Divine. It actually should be released as a audio CD and not a visual DVD, as the music is fantastic, but the directing is...no comment.

The production was first recorded in 2001, so it was done when Julia was quite young, and this is what makes it amazing. At such a tender age, the mastery and the artistry of her musical talent is oozing out already. She plays it without Sir Neville Mariner conducting and the concerto came out beautifully.

In the DVD, the Winter is absolutely serenely beautiful until the tempest come and gone, then it becomes picturesque again.

The glass structure, in case anybody interested, is in England designed by the world famous architect of Norman Foster.

The is a DVD that is worth keeping. I have been waiting for more than a year for this and now I am happy.

I would highly recommend this to you if you are a Julia Fischer fan.

Ótima apresentação além de uma constatnte modificação do cenário lembrando a aparencia das estaçòes que tanto se diferenciam tanto na natureza com música. Parabéns Julia.
