The Australian Chamber Orchestra has always forged its own path. With Artistic Director and violinist Richard Tognetti at the helm, the ACO has been producing films for over a decade, from their award-winning collaborations with BAFTA-nominated director Jennifer Peedom (âMountainâ, âRiverâ) to their acclaimed series of cinematic music films, âACO StudioCastsâ. Directed by Matisse Ruby, âThe Four Seasonsâ film release is the latest from this ground-breaking, world-renowned ensemble. Arguably the most popular and recognisable piece of classical music ever written, this performance directed by Richard Tognetti, highlights the profound symbiosis between Vivaldiâs Venice and the Middle East. Interspersing Vivaldiâs masterpiece with music by Australian-Egyptian composer and Oud virtuoso Joseph Tawardros, the film honours Vivaldiâs classic while giving it new life. A must-see for music lovers and cinephiles alike.
