Summary: Vivaldi with a power never heard before
Review: With so many versions of Vivaldi's Four Seasons, and after listening them so many times, I asked myself if it's something I still don't know or heard. This version gave me the answer. Compared with this version, the others seem weak, superflous, ambiance music to entertain bored monarchs. With Karajan and Ann-Sophie Mutter, Vivaldi regains power, character and now is music to be listened with attention to all the interesting details that make this version the best one I ever heard. Listen (and see) the violas in Summer's 3rd, the powerful bass in Autum 3rd while Karajan, sitting by an extra cembalo, improvises some chords. A must-have for all music lovers.
