The Grammy-winning baroque orchestra Apollo’s Fire, called “a gem of an ensemble” by the New York Times, returns to Ravinia with artistic director, conductor, and harpsichordist Jeannette Sorrell for their artfully curated program Vivaldi’s Four Seasons Rediscovered. The group presents Vivaldi’s revolutionary acts of musical storytelling as they were meant to be performed, bringing his pictorial descriptions to life. From bird calls and storms to a barking dog, flies and wasps, drunken peasants, an exhilarating fox hunt, and more, audiences around the world have been enchanted by this touring production.
