Bridgehampton Chamber Music Festival Wm. Brian Little Concert – Season For Seasons: Vivaldi And Piazzolla
BCMF's annual Wm. Brian Little Concert takes place at the Channing Sculpture Garden, with 6 pm wine and hors d'oeuvres followed by the concert at 7 pm. For this year's program, Vivaldi’s iconic Four Seasons (for which he also wrote accompanying sonnets) meets Piazzolla’s sultry Cuatro Estaciones Porteñas (Four Seasons of Buenos Aires) in a program where time, place, and style intertwine. From the bright renewal of Vivaldi’s “Spring” to the tempestuous heat of his “Summer,” nature is rendered in Baroque brilliance. Piazzolla’s “Winter” and “Autumn,” by contrast, pulse with tango rhythms and urban melancholy, reimagining the seasons through the ardent lens of Buenos Aires. Together, these works offer a striking conversation across continents—earthy, electric, and timeless.
The musicians performing the program are Marya Martin, flute; Paul Huang, violin; Kristin Lee, violin; Julian Rhee, violin; Cindy Phelps, viola; Brannon Cho, cello; Kenneth Weiss, harpsichord; and Donald Palma, bass.
