Discovering another version of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons isn’t necessarily a thrilling event in itself, but this work is quite different; it mirrors another cycle on the exact same subject written by an unknown, and therefore completely unpublished, composer.
Giovanni Antonio Guido, who was likely born around 1675, three years before Vivaldi, began his career in Naples before leaving for Paris at the start of the 18th century. Here, he became “Master of Music” to Philippe d’Orléans, the future regent of France. Due to his Italian ancestry and education, it was perhaps inevitable that Guido would go on to make the music of his country popular in France. During his time in Paris, he composed his Scherzi armonici sopra le Quattro stagioni dell’anno, which was based on anonymous poems. Its formulation went against the usual fast-slow-fast scheme, instead taking the form of a French-style divertissement consisting of about ten short movements in a virtuoso Italian style.
This work was discovered thanks to Franco-Argentine violinist Andrés Gabetta, who’s always on the lookout for new repertoire. He translates Guido’s work brilliantly here, conducting the musicians of the Orchestre de l’Opéra Royal de Versailles with the tip of his bow. Andrés Gabetta’s insatiable curiosity also opens up new perspectives on Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, adding a few wind instruments (flutes, oboes, whistles) in accordance with a version performed in Dresden, a city with a high musical tradition that reserves its warmest welcomes for the Venetian composer’s works. This interpretation is lively, as if carried by a stormy autumn wind, shaking up our listening habits in the best way. © François Hudry/Qobuz
