For my final project I plan on breaking down Vivaldi's 'Motion of the Four Seasons'. This popular work depicts the four seasons solely through audio. Each of the four motions creates the feeling of a particular season (the movement's title is the season represented), capturing a close to universal event that is encountered throughout the world. The music acts as the narrative, embodying the seasons meticulously. This feat has been attempted by numerous master composers, yet Vivaldi's final product trumps others. Each movement originated as a Sonnet, written by Vivaldi himself. By shifting mediums, Vivaldi transforms a mediocre text into a classic masterwork, smashing all questionable barriers between the distinction of an audio medium and its original text.
