Programme: Vivaldi's Four Seasons and Schubert's Ave Maria

Each concerto follows a sonnet about its season, line by line. We play them in an arrangement for string quartet.

  1. SpringLa primavera

    Concerto No. 1 in E major, RV 269

    Birdsong, a stream, a thunderstorm, and a goatherd asleep while his dog barks.

  2. SummerL'estate

    Concerto No. 2 in G minor, RV 315

    Sluggish heat, a cuckoo, then a hailstorm that flattens the corn.

  3. AutumnL'autunno

    Concerto No. 3 in F major, RV 293

    A harvest feast with dancing and wine, then a hunt at dawn.

  4. WinterL'inverno

    Concerto No. 4 in F minor, RV 297

    Chattering teeth, rain on the window by the fire, careful steps on the ice.

  5. Franz Schubert: Ave Maria

    The soprano joins the quartet for Schubert's Ave Maria and further pieces.

Played by the Vienna Gothic Ensemble: string quartet and soprano.

St. Salvator, the chapel of Vienna's Old Town Hall

The soprano and string quartet performing before the high altar

St. Salvator began as the private chapel of a town palace that became Vienna's town hall. Inside are a Gothic rib vault and gilded Baroque altars; today it is the bishop's church of the Old Catholic Church of Austria.

The concerts are organised by Gothic Chapel Concert and held at St. Salvator Church. They are not organised by the parish.
