Thank you for watching everyone! In order to grow our channel in the right ways, we’d love to get to know you all a little better. If you could give us a few minutes of your time to complete this short survey we’d be very grateful: www.surveymonkey.com/r/2TYPXF3
What is MOST astounding, is that the producer's artist depicts Vivaldi as being a left-handed violinist? Can you investigate where that information originated ? And remember, no matter how beautiful your violin melody might be, it can never be considered to be a concerto, unless you're Italian?? The Seasons for Children FredGold&LyndaFaye.
To us Spring means love, running in parks, picking flowers and Easter Summer means fun, barbecue, a day at the beach and 4th of July Fall means windy, harvest and Halloween And Winter means playing in the snow, having hot chocolate, sitting by the fire and Christmas.
Right? I had no idea Vivaldi was so nearly completely forgotten. Makes you wonder how many other pieces are sitting in archives or attics that haven't been heard for centuries.
@@trinefanmel Vivaldi is still a pretty underrated composer. Most people only know about his Four Seasons, despite the fact he created hundreds other great works.
@@sean-kb4wr Cello Concerto RV419, an awesome and epic masterpiece, the third part sounds like heavy metal without electric guitars. I also love Concerto Alla Rustica and Mandolin Concerto RV425.
I used to listen to the radio stations on TV & they would have "Fun Facts" for visual stimulation. One such fun fact was "Antonio Vilvaldi died penniless & was buried in a pauper's grave." to which I would think, "Sounds like a bummer only to those who wanted for an inheritance." *Thanks for the Content!*
I love this series! The animation is amazing! I'm glad Vivaldi was born in late 17th century where the weather was still consistent. If composed today, the piece would end with the rise of the ocean level flooding Venice entirely and the Earth burning due to climate change. Here where I live I experienced the four seasons in just one week.
Vivaldi was not the only Italian composer from his time (the Baroque). Others include Arcangelo Corelli, Giusppe Torelli, Francesco Onofrio Manfredini, Piero Antonio Locatelli, Gaetano Maria Schiassi, Lorenzo Gaetano Zavateri, Giusppe Sammartini, and The Scarlattis (Allessandro & Domenico), all of whom wrote Christmas Pastorales.
I love you ClassicsExplained! Your content is among my favorite on RUclips! I’d love to see a video on the firebird sometime!💖 please keep up the fantastic work!
Played that once (my then girlfriend's violin teacher arranged for a concert with friends, students, ex-students, and herself as solo violin). It was great fun (but stressful, my GF was concert master). Great memories! And I like listening and playing his music (and others, Telemann, Bach, Corelli...)
I spy the nymphs from Debussy's Prelude dancing in Spring 🌸 and Phoebus hungover drinking coffee, driving the Sun, in Autumn🍂. Nice to see some cameos from previous episodes!
I studied under Mark Wood of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra for a few years and he taught me how to play his take on Vivaldi, Vivaldi Rocks. Would definitely give it a listen. It's amazing. Love Vivaldi!
Oh, that Nigel Kennedy album! What a legend..... This video was awesome! Very descriptive. Thank you so much! I would like to have a collection of actual busts in your cartoon style. LoL! Cheers!
Spring is the first of the paintings in Respighi's Tritpych to Botticelli. Delius wrote On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring, Summer Night on the River, and Winter Night (Sleigh Ride).
Classical depictions of Spring other than Vivaldi include Delius (On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring), Glazunov (Spring), Strauss II (Voices of Spring), Respighi (first part of Botticelli Tryptych), Bridge (Enter Spring), and Grieg (Last Spring). Classical Depictions of Summer other than Vivaldi include Delius (Summer Night on the River), and Bridge (Summer, tone poem for Orchestra). Classical depictions of Autumn other than Vivaldi include Grieg (In Autumn). Classical depcitions of Winter other than Vivaldi include Delius (Winter Night "Sleigh Ride"), Waldteufel (Skaters Waltz), Offenbach (Snowflakes Ballet from a Trip to the Moon), & Mozart (German Dance "Sleigh Ride").
You mentioned Bach towards the end of this survey. He wrote alot of Christmas works such as Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, Christmas Oratorio, Brandenburg Concerto no. 3, Sleepers Awake, Sheep May Safely Graze, and Pastorale for Organ in F Major. For Halloween there is his Toccata and Fugue in D Minor and Orchestral Suite no. 2 in B Minor. And as for Easter, there is the St. Mathew Passion.
I can’t begin to explain how amazing these videos are, the production value is on par with other great RUclips channels like crash course! Thank you so much these vids are amazing
Thank you so much for opening my ears to classical music! It's both impression and expression - oh and don't forget the plot line. It's well clever! Cheers!
Another giant during Vivaldi's time was George Firderic Handel. He would write the iconic Easter and Christmas Crossover Oratorio- Messiah (featuring For Unto Us a Child is Born, Pifa, & Hallelujah), For Earth Day- The Cuckoo and the Nightingale, for Christmas Largo from Serse (Thanks to Braodcast from 1905) and Arrival of the Queen of Sheba from Solomon (considering the same base line as Pachelbel's Canon). More general works include Zadok the Priest, The Water Music, and Music for the Royal Fireworks.
Wonderful as usual, one of the greatest and most important Baroque composers. If we are talking about Italian composers, I would like to see a video about Verdi or Puccini, they were both amazing and very important opera composers. Particularly Rigoletto and Turandot are very good examples of great works by both those composers.
It’s so interesting to hear that he has a connection through his love of birdsong to Messiaen! Maybe you could do a video on his Vingt Regards or the Turangalîla-Symphonie?
I have just discovered your channel and i love it ! Keep going man you are doing excellent job 💪🏼❤ !! Please make a video explaining one of Mahler's symphonies.
Thank you for watching everyone!

did we talked about Paganini or Liszt or Rachmaninoff already?
Will there be Pastoral Symphony, Pines of Rome, Barber of Seville, Bartered Bride, Bolero, Kinderszenen, and Songs of the Earth?

The Seasons for Children
FredGold&LyndaFaye.
Wow the animation team is getting seriously good
... and high...
I like the way Vivaldi described spring and autumn as peaceful seasons and summer and winter as stormy ones.
Summer is usually stormy though.
Sounds like a guy who wish he stay on tropical places if he could
Vivaldi's Winter, to me, is Eschatological and I depict the Fimbulwinter portion of the Norse Ragnarök in this Concerto.@@scorpioninpink
It sounds like the 10 Plagues unleashed on Pharaoh Ramses II in Exodes. @@scorpioninpink
To us
Spring means love, running in parks, picking flowers and Easter
Summer means fun, barbecue, a day at the beach and 4th of July
Fall means windy, harvest and Halloween
And Winter means playing in the snow, having hot chocolate, sitting by the fire and Christmas.
Finally some baroque. Now you’ve covered all 5 eras
not only that,its the first italian in this channel
100th like! (Oh sorry)
The animation on this is on-point, holy crap! Major kudos to this animation team for their work, it's so fluid!
Please please please NEVER stop making these videos
vivaldi is great. I love his bassoon concertos
Crazy how late it was such iconic music was rediscovered. No one who died in WW1 ever heard Vivaldi's Four Seasons
Right? I had no idea Vivaldi was so nearly completely forgotten. Makes you wonder how many other pieces are sitting in archives or attics that haven't been heard for centuries.
This episode was wonderful. Vivaldi is one of my favorite composers and this video was such a nice surprise for me...🥰
Same here! Thank goodness for that chance find in '26 otherwise we either wouldn't know or really wouldn't care...
@@trinefanmel Vivaldi is still a pretty underrated composer. Most people only know about his Four Seasons, despite the fact he created hundreds other great works.
@@alex9920ro I'd say that is unfortunately the case with many other composers, even today.
What is your favorite Vivaldi concerto
@@sean-kb4wr Cello Concerto RV419, an awesome and epic masterpiece, the third part sounds like heavy metal without electric guitars. I also love Concerto Alla Rustica and Mandolin Concerto RV425.
Fun fact: the feeling of calm and peace you feel while inside a thunderstorm is called “chrysalism”

Here in Italy we say he was the firt metal musician hahahha, really a genius, to think we almost lost his music…
The dog is the beat boy!
I spy the nymphs from Debussy's Prelude dancing in Spring 🌸 and Phoebus hungover drinking coffee, driving the Sun, in Autumn🍂. Nice to see some cameos from previous episodes!
I think I saw Camille Saint-Saëns (in sheep costume) and some of Edward Elgar’s friends from “Enigma Variations” in the Venetian crowd.
I studied under Mark Wood of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra for a few years and he taught me how to play his take on Vivaldi, Vivaldi Rocks. Would definitely give it a listen. It's amazing. Love Vivaldi!
I know you’ve been back for a while, but every time I see a video of yours, and every month no less, I feel so grateful that you’re back.
These really come out quickly, I'm impressed!
woot #400! Thank you for these videos! I really learn and enjoy them!
9:20 Fortuna from Carmina Burana right before they tell us about Vivaldi’s pauper ending
Truly the wheel spun against him
11:53 kilroy was here
Excellent video!!
3:18 - 🤣 The callback to Saint-Saens's Carnival 🤣😂
4:40 - 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This isn't possible
I am actually learning something on YTube
And enjoying it.
What a great video. Thank you very much for that wonderfully taled story.
0:10 Vivaldi the Weatherman!
Oh, that Nigel Kennedy album! What a legend..... This video was awesome! Very descriptive. Thank you so much! I would like to have a collection of actual busts in your cartoon style. LoL! Cheers!
Loved how other characters from prior videos made an appearance in this one. Great use of Easter eggs.

I love how the map used in the weather raport is depicting Italy as it looked during Vivaldis time.
FOUR SEASONS, LET'S GOOOOOOOOO!!!
Vivaldi was the OG metalhead!!!!
THAT'S AWESOME MY MAN
Omg the dog haha🤣🤣🤣 So funny! This is amazing🙌🙌
Since you did Vivaldi's Four Seasons, try Repighi's Pines of Rome next. Both Composers are Italian instrumental giants for Earth Day.
Episode 24
Damn dude. I get so much more out of music with this context. Thank you.
If you're taking suggestions, I'd love to hear the history of Ravel's Bolero!
Episode 23
0:21 vivaldi the grandpa of 4 seasons. ❤
You're cranking them out fast now, I love it!!
You see yourself covering something by Borodin? Either "Prince Igor" or "Steppes of Central Asia"??
You mentioned Bach towards the end of this survey. He wrote alot of Christmas works such as Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, Christmas Oratorio, Brandenburg Concerto no. 3, Sleepers Awake, Sheep May Safely Graze, and Pastorale for Organ in F Major.

Can't wait to watch this after class today, good stuff
I love the subtle reference to the cartoon TV show 'Madeline' you made there. Grew up watching it on 'playhouse disney' as a little girl.
Exceptional! Truly a Classic Explained 🤩
Not really sure what to say but Im commenting to drive engagement bc this channel deserves it
Thank you
That would be wonderful to have our weather report delivered as a musical piece.😁🎶🎹🎶Play On
I can’t begin to explain how amazing these videos are, the production value is on par with other great RUclips channels like crash course! Thank you so much these vids are amazing
FINALLY!
a new classics explained video! i'm so happy
Man, I love Vivaldi!
Thank you so much for opening my ears to classical music! It's both impression and expression - oh and don't forget the plot line. It's well clever! Cheers!
Absolutely fantastic channel. Better than MCs Great Composers that I bought in my youth.
Loved the Saint-Saens callback with all the animals!
What do you think of the new Steve Richter "re-imagining" of the piece? I personally love it.
saint-saens is now a furry lol
Max Richter? First heard it on The Crown. Really intriguing 🙂
@@jeryth057 - Ach! Yes Max. There's also the organist Karl, but I don't think they're related. I must have been thinking of Steve Reich.
OMG I LOVE THIS
Please do Verdi’s requiem
As a G&B Vardøhus Fortress lover,i can actually say that Vivaldi,Four seasons of Winter is the one we'll always hear.
Lets goooo! 💪🏾💪🏾

When David comes to the scene at 9:13 😂🤣
Stravinsky once said that Vivaldi wrote the same concerto 500 times. "The Four Seasons" alone proves him very wrong.
Maan, i love winter!
Well done! One of the best channels on RUclips! Keep up the amazing work!
Wonderful as usual, one of the greatest and most important Baroque composers. If we are talking about Italian composers, I would like to see a video about Verdi or Puccini, they were both amazing and very important opera composers. Particularly Rigoletto and Turandot are very good examples of great works by both those composers.
You meant to explain this.
Thank you.
I really enjoy the summer.
From Goku to superhero to XVII century violin teacher in less than a minute. Wow
Eventhough it's completely overplayed and I mostly avoid it I have to admit it is a masterpiece.
These are the songs that made me learn violin
yay! another ep! i have been waiting for so long!
Man I love your videos. All the best to you
These animations are so funny, great!! Love how Saint-Saens is back again here as a goat or sheep 😂
Vivaldi would also create a famous Gloria for Christmas.
Wonderful job once again ^^
Wonderful explanation of this music and The Red Priest himself!❤🎉😊
This episode makes me smile from cuteness :3
It’s so interesting to hear that he has a connection through his love of birdsong to Messiaen! Maybe you could do a video on his Vingt Regards or the Turangalîla-Symphonie?
👏👏👏👏👏👏 standing ovation!
What a pity that you can't put a million likes, I totally would
I like your animation. It's cool how you put characters from old videos in to new ones.
Thank you! Bravo!!! 👏 👏 👏 👏
Awesome video!
Please dont stop making these+
1926 saw not only the rediscovery of Vivaldi's works, but also the premieres of Puccini's Turandot & Sibelius' Tapiola.
Antonio Vivaldi while making these: My time has come.
How does a drunk farmer sound? Find out by listening to Vivaldi's Four Seasons!
I'm italian and in middle school we ahd to study this for history of music
Just think about how many videos on RUclips have Winter - Vivaldi (The Four Seasons) in them.
that's what i call baROCK music ⚡⚡🎸🎸
What I call the opening of Spring:
Horseback ride to Antwerp
I love your channel, you are covering my favorite composers, I hope you cover gustav mahler for your later contents❤❤❤❤❤
I have just discovered your channel and i love it ! Keep going man you are doing excellent job 💪🏼❤ !! Please make a video explaining one of Mahler's symphonies.
Loved this one! You should do all 24 caprices by Paganini, that could be fun!
or Rachmaninov's Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.
I would love to see this kind of video with a ravel piece or mahler! You guys do everything perfectly!
Brilliant.
Played the Spring concerto at a concerto competition when I was in 6th grade.
5:17 Saint Saëns, is that you there??
