    Uploaded by

    Karen Angela Danao
    Vivaldi's Four Seasons (Spring) is divided into 6 themes that alternate between ritornello sections played by the full orchestra and corresponding solo episodes. Each ritornello focuses on the main Spring theme while the episodes represent different elements like birds with trills, water with softer dynamics, and thunder with repeated notes. The movement ends with the 6th and final ritornello that closes with a gradual decrease in volume.
