Spring has sprung! Few words bring more happiness and optimism. The simple changing of one season to another has inspired some of the most famous classical music of all-time - Antonio Vivaldi?s set of four concertos, The Four Seasons.

iTromboni alumnus, Kenneth Pearce, has masterfully arranged the 1st movement of Spring (La Primavera) for trombone quintet complete with all the sparkle of the original. As each of The Four Seasons concertos originally came with a short sonnet, Ken has included some of these word cues in the score and parts so you too can celebrate while playing along to the bird?s song, the murmuring stream, and the crashing thunderstorm.

This 3 � minute Italian gem is sure to delight listeners and is suitable for advanced performers.

This arrangement of Spring (La Primavera) can be heard below as a sample and in its entirety on iTromboni?s debut album: ?there goes the neighbourhood?.
