ANNO: Four Seasons by Anna Meredith & Antonio Vivaldi

The Hallé comes to Aviva Studios for the first time with Anna Meredith’s atmospheric composition ANNO

The Hallé presents an immersive work by powerhouse composer Anna Meredith.

A recontextualisation of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, ANNO takes the audience through a whole calendar year in just one hour of continuous music. Anna Meredith creates a striking reimagining of the classic work, elegantly fusing fragments of Vivaldi with her own characteristic electronic music.

ANNO is an intensely immersive production: the only light comes from the players’ tablets and the projected images of animated visuals provided by the composer’s sister, Eleanor Meredith.

Anna Meredith is a composer, producer and performer, known for her innovative, genre-defying orchestral works. At MIF23, she joined the Royal Northern College of Music Festival Orchestra for a sensational live performance of her Mercury Prize-shortlisted album FIBS.

Brought to life by the Hallé, ANNO is a transformational experience for the eyes and ears, merging old with new in a stunning portrayal of the passage of time.
