Joseph Haydn The Seasons sheet music

Well, we have the autumn, again… Should we be sorry about warm and sunny summer? Life goes on and we cannot stop the time running. We can just hope that it will open for us new amazing horizons, we’ll get to know more interesting things, meet new wonderful people, and actually good days happens in any time of the year. So, let us not to be sad and sorry about last summer. It was beautiful and reminiscence of those amazing days will warm us in future cold time.
Many composers have written music inspired by the four seasons. Vivaldi, Piazzolla, Tchaikovsky are just few of them which names came across of my mind in this minute. The Four Seasons I think is the best-known work of Antonio Vivaldi and one of the most famous works from Baroque. Piazzolla’s The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires for violin and strings opposite is the music of nowadays. Written in typical for Astor Piazzolla style of Argentinean Tango this music charms a listener by the rhythm and passion. Pieces describing twelve months from piano cycle of Peter Tchaikovsky are familiar and abundant compositions in repertoire of many piano lovers around the world.
And there is another cycle dedicated to this theme. In 1801 Joseph Haydn finished his great oratorio “The Seasons”. I think many piano players will be interested to have a look at the sheet music of Haydn’s “The Seasons” piano version.
