Les Arts Florissants is a best-in-class ensemble of period musicians, and their performances are must-hear events for fans of early music (and anyone curious about it!). In what promises to be a highly in-demand matinee in Carnegie Hall's most intimate venue, this concert celebrates 300 years since the publishing of Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, one of the most popular musical creations of all time. Under the leadership of extraordinary violinist Théotime Langlois de Swarte, they perform the complete masterpiece and additional works by Vivaldi, Monteverdi, Geminiani, and Uccellini.

About Les Arts Florissants
Founded in 1979 by William Christie, Les Arts Florissants is one of the best-known baroque-music ensembles in the world. Established in the name of creativity, pleasure and sharing, the Ensemble—which takes its name from a short opera by Marc-Antoine Charpentier—has played a pioneering role in the revival of a repertoire that had been largely forgotten and which is now enjoyed across the globe in all the most prestigious concert houses. This pioneering spirit has never died, and Les Arts Florissants' two artistic directors, William Christie and Paul Agnew, continue the Ensemble's tradition of research and innovation today.
