2021 - 14: Joshua Bell's Seasons - Vivaldi v Piazzola

American violinist Joshua Bell and the string orchestra of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields mix up the familiar with the unfamiliar, 18th-century Italy with 20th-century Argentina, baroque with tango, as they interweave Vivaldi's famous Four Seasons with Astor Piazzolla's The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires. Argentinian musician Guillermo Willis joins presenter Josie d'Arby at the Royal Albert Hall for this celebration of the centenary year of Astor Piazzolla - and of virtuosic talent, past and present.
