Vivaldi’s Four Seasons
From barking dogs to summer storms, icy winters and birds chirping in spring, Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons is one of history’s greatest “program music” compositions.
Best known for his four-part masterpiece, it describes landscapes and scenes, evokes feelings and emotions and brings forth memories without the need for words. You know it without knowing you know it and it never tires, gets old or ceases to amaze.
Pay tribute to the brilliant, eternal and classic compositions of Vivaldi surrounded by a sea of candles.
Candlelight concerts at Geelong West Town Hall transform some of the greatest works of music. Sit in a welcoming environment bathed in the glow of candles, and relax whilst the talented musicians serenade you with unforgettable renditions of familiar songs.
