Vivaldi's original has never been one of my favourite musical suites, though that's not to say it is good or bad, I think I just got to hear it too much and familiarity breeds contempt, so we say. So, even if this is an electronic butchering, I wouldn't mind. What sells it for me is that it is electronic, that's my proverbial bag, so to speak. Comparatively, I instantly think of Isao Tomita and his various reworkings of classical pieces, Holst's 'Planets', which I loved as a child (in it's original form and electronic reconstruction), his fantastic rendering of Ravel's 'Bolero' (again, in both forms), another childhood favourite, amongst many others.

Anyway, that's enough small talk. L'Autunno is OK, dare I say a bit drab but perhaps in some senses well captured. Like I've said, I'm not a fan of the original. La Primavera sounds like a pipe organ in a fairground, to be fair and then scatters into a minimalist interpretation. Then ebbs and flows betwixt the two. Kind of spaced out, like Tomita's 'Bermuda Triangle', but without the exactitude. I quite like L'Inverno, more precise and listenable in its own right. Similarly, again with L'Estate, perhaps it is down to better production. I cannot quibble over such electronic technicalities, nor to be honest, a just comparison with the original. On the face of it, it is a reasonable piece of electronica, which is how I will score it, regardless of its correlation to the original.
