This is a reissue of a hugely successful 1990 recording of The Four Seasons from violinist Jaap van Zweden, who later became a well-known classical and romantic repertoire conductor.
Among the reasons of interest in this album, is the use of one-to-a-part group for the orchestra. €1.00 from each sold copy will be donated to Papageno foundation, created by van Zweden himself and supporting families with autistic children.
