Hallé Orchestra - The Four Seasons

The Hallé Orchestra performs Vivaldi's and Piazzolla's Four Seasons with director and violinist Roberto Ruisi, with no conductor.

Roberto Ruisi, one of the Hallé Orchestra's Leaders, directs the ensemble from the violin in a programme pairing Vivaldi's Baroque masterpiece The Four Seasons with Piazzolla's The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires. There is no conductor; the performance relies on Ruisi's direction and the orchestra's teamwork. The concert lasts around an hour of music across the two works, with a pre-concert event at 6.30pm.
