(Adnkronos) - Le Div4s - Italian Sopranos: “Una sfida vocalmente molto impegnativa Le Quattro Stagioni di Antonio Vivaldi, che abbiamo accettato con grande entusiasmo. Quattro le stagioni, quattro i nostri timbri, quattro i caratteri, un incastro perfetto!” Ha detto il gruppo vocale Le Div4s - Italian Sopranos, in occasione del concerto “The 4 Seasons” che, a 300 anni dalla pubblicazione de Le Quattro Stagioni di Antonio Vivaldi, rende omaggio alla celebre opera con un'esperienza musicale che fonde lirica e innovazione, presso la Camera di Commercio di Roma, nella Sala del Tempio di Vibia Sabina e Adriano, in Piazza di Pietra.

00:00We met in 2008 thanks to an audition that took place here in Rome with a commission of excellence
00:13formed by Marcello Rota, Carlo Bernini and Francesca Volpini, our producer.
00:20This idea was born from Francesca Volpini.
00:27We made our first debut with Andrea Bocelli,
00:34we did the first tours with him, which brought us around, the project grew
00:40until we got to Four Seasons and now we are in the present.
00:48We have been in the studio a lot, we couldn't record anymore,
00:52because we have been behind with the recordings for a while.
00:56Currently we have made a record, all on the work of Maestro Morricone,
01:04with his most famous soundtracks, together with the musical band of the State Police,
01:09which is directed by Maestro Maurizio Billi.
01:12Now in April we will be in San Carlo di Napoli to present it.
01:16In addition, with the four seasons, the next commitments will be in Bari,
01:23Mantua, Palazzo Te, so all these beautiful situations that we are very happy to be able to realize.
01:29We have known each other for many years, we have worked together, side by side,
01:34on various stages, various countries, various cities,
01:38and this idea of Four Seasons comes from our manager,
01:43who is also a violinist, so he has been able to create,
01:48to put in voice Four Seasons, who have never seen this version sung.
01:57An unpublished version.
01:59Yes, an unpublished version, arranged by the great Maestro Molinelli.
02:03Yes, for the first time, he adapted the sounds written by Vivaldi himself,
02:11which he had written with the function of Dascalica,
02:14so just to explain to the public what his music would have been.
02:19Maestro Molinelli took these sounds, which described all four seasons,
02:24adapting them to his musical arrangement.
02:27So an absolutely unpublished thing, because no one has ever sung the Four Seasons,
02:31so for us it was very challenging and very stimulating.
02:34We think of ourselves as bearers of an important message.
02:39Today, more than ever, today it is often denied, in a sense,
02:46the existence of a vision of the world a little old-fashioned,
02:54even if we think it is not so.
02:58So the Divas project represents the strength that is inside every woman.
