These Seasons are “half” because they interweave famous jazz standards with Vivaldi's Four Seasons. The narrative thread follows the cycle of the seasons, understood not only as a natural phenomenon, but as a metaphor for love and the human condition. A journey that reflects the parable of life: every end already contains a new beginning.
