"The Seasons of Life" is the theme of a concert featuring Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" and composer Mark O'Connor's "American Seasons for Fiddle and Orchestra." Violinist Catherine Cho is the soloist for extensive excerpts from Vivaldi's 1725 masterwork, while O'Connor plays violin for for his jazz-influenced work, which charts not the seasons of the year but his own life. Cho, O'Connor and BPO music director JoAnn Falletta describe the music throughout the concert.
