Video: 'This is a portrait of life' – Michael Morpurgo & Daniel Pioro on Vivaldi's The Four Seasons

A new recording of Vivaldi's masterpiece The Four Seasons is released today by Platoon, featuring narration and poetry by Michael Morpurgo and music by Daniel Pioro and Manchester Camerata.

In this conversation between Morpurgo and Pioro, they discuss the power of Vivaldi's music to portray the particular wonders of each season, and how important it is that we, and particularly children, are reminded how interconnected our lives are with the changing seasons.
