Vivaldi's Four Seasons is one of the most famous pieces of music ever written. It is performed and studied on a daily basis worldwide. The purpose of this book is to make this incredible and popular music part of the standard guitar repertoire.
At any time there are scores of recordings available and many performances on YouTube.
Having performed this piece hundreds of time with my string quartet, I thought it was about time to put together a solo guitar version. The piece works very well, which is a testament to Vivaldi's writing and the geniuses who devised the modern guitar and it's tuning.
What better way to learn the nuts and bolts of music than through playing pieces like this?
Most of the passages lay perfectly well under the fingers, and the occasional technical challenge it at least, very well worth the effort, which you can't say for all pieces! The piece is fully fingered and the chord shapes are clearly displayed for your convenience.
Enjoy learning this piece and then share the fun with friends, family and audiences wherever you go. The 'Four Seasons' have been popular for nearly 300 years now, so you will get a lot of mileage out of this piece.
