Concert and film composer Max Richter’s stunning reimagining of Vivaldi’s iconic Four Seasons has become a viral hit since its 2012 premiere. Another perennial favorite, Mozart’s 40th symphony, has long been heard as a gateway to the Romantic age. Its conflicts and turbulence are illuminated a dark beauty that listeners have always found deeply consoling.
