One of the most famous pieces comprising the CURVED AIR canon, “Vivaldi” – that appeared on the band’s second album, 1970’s “Air Conditioning” – had been composed by Darryl Way before the ensemble emerged on the scene, in 1968. And now, to mark its 50th anniversary, the veteran violinist decided to expand that classical experience and progress from the Italian maestro’s influence to a full-on interpretation of his most popular opus. Out on May 4th, “Vivaldi’s Four Seasons In Rock” is poised to be more impressive than its predecessor "Myths, Legends And Tales" and is likely to become a favorite with many fans of crossover.
