Perhaps the best recording of Vivaldi's 4 Seasons ever.

"Vladimir Spivakov and the Moscow Virtuosi have put together perhaps the greatest interpretation of this timeless piece of music ever produced. The intensity with which these phenomenal performers play is without peer. They play impassioned, almost mechanically every note. And as each note played accross my ears, I could not but help but feel transported into a different era, as if the orchestra played directly in front of me, and just for me. If you like strings, this is a must have. It is one of the few and rare peices of music which has caused a chill to run down my spine, and a tear to fall from my eye. It is that good."
