Birds, barking dogs and rainstorms are featured in Vivaldi’s Spring concerto. Piazzolla’s Primavera is a bouncy tango, dancing it’s way into spring. When Robert Schumann composed his Symphony No. 1, he gave each movement titles such as “The Beginning of Spring” and “Spring in Full Bloom.” As you listen to it, you’ll gain insight into how music sets the scene for a time and place.
