Fury in the Storm

Description

Violin 1, Violin 2, Viola, Cello, Double Bass — This furioso arrangement blends two iconic themes: the stormy presto from Summer in Vivaldi’s legendary “Four Seasons” and Dance of the Furies from Act II of Christoph Gluck's opera, "Orfeo ed Euridice." Retaining the original keys of G minor and D minor, respectively, Vivaldi’s thunderous theme segues perfectly to the furies’ vigorous dance in the underworld, before modulating seamlessly back to Vivaldi’s summer motif. With relentless momentum, every section gets energetic passages that will electrify the concert hall.
