Jean-Christophe Spinosi imagines that the Italian composer could adapt his masterpiece in the light of contemporary ecological and climatic crises to describe their impact and possible developments, and offers a completely new interpretation of the Baroque concertos. Under his direction and using the scientific data on which he bases his work, the score of the Four Seasons projects us into the future of the planet.
In this original creation with the Ensemble Matheus, the conductor combines traditional Egyptian instruments with electronic sounds. To convey, through musical emotion, what global warming promises the world, he even undertakes a totally original exercise: he translates into key words what the experts are predicting for the future of the planet, then inserts them into Vivaldi's sonnets. The result is a new scenario that takes viewers from the 18th century to the end of the 21st century.
