Vivaldi’s Four Seasons

VS presents a treat for lovers of music from the Baroque era, as Nanaimo-born violinist Aisslinn Nosky leads Vivaldi’s evergreen classic and more! The airs and dances of Rameau’s suite raise a storm among the Greek Gods, while Emily Doolittle’s work calms the waters. Nosky captivates audiences around the world with her innovative interpretations and impeccable technique. Her fierce passion for early music and skill as a soloist, director, and conductor has generated robust appreciation by press and audiences alike.
