Vivaldi's Four Seasons at Christmas at Glasgow Cathedral

A Christmas classical concert at Glasgow Cathedral, presenting Vivaldi's The Four Seasons performed by the Piccadilly Sinfonietta. The programme also includes Corelli's Christmas Concerto and other works.

The concert is a seasonal programme of baroque and classical music built around Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, which is presented alongside Arcangelo Corelli's Christmas Concerto and other pieces. It is staged by CityMusic Promotions Ltd, and the performers are the Piccadilly Sinfonietta.

The Piccadilly Sinfonietta is an ensemble that gives over 200 performances each year and is described as including some of the UK's finest classical musicians. It has a established place on the British music scene, and its interpretations are praised across the baroque, classical and early romantic repertoire, which suits the Vivaldi and Corelli works on this programme.

The concert takes place in Glasgow Cathedral, on Castle Street. It is a Church of Scotland parish church and was once the cathedral church of the Archbishop of Glasgow. The building also hosts concerts, mainly candlelit performances, and this programme is aimed at those who want a classical evening in the run-up to Christmas.
