Antonio Lucio Vivaldi  (4 March 1678 – 28 July 1741) was an Italian priest and prominent composer of the Italian Baroque style, virtuoso violinist, and  teacher. 

Born in Venice, he is recognized as one of the greatest Baroque composers, and his influence during his lifetime was widespread across Europe. He is known mainly for composing many instrumental concertos, for the violin and a variety of other instruments, as well as sacred choral works and more than forty operas. His best-known work is a series of violin concertos known as The Four Seasons.   

It is believed that the reason his mother dedicated him to the priesthood was because a powerful earthquake shook Venice on the day he was born and she believed that they would not survive. In the seminary he was known as  il Prete Rosso, "The Red Priest"  because of his fiery red hair. It is unknown as to when exactly Vivaldi began to play the violin but by 24 he began working at an orphanage called Conservatorio dell’Ospedale della Pieta as a violin teacher. He was an expert violinist but is better known for his serene piano compositions. Vivaldi’s music was bright and innovative. Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, a violin concerto that pulls from the emotional rises of the seasons.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_Vivaldi

Why should you listen to Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" ?
Because it's one of the best musics of all time.
Do you need more reasons ?
It's around 40 minutes of pure emotions. It's not just a song, it is an experience. Something you can listen and feel.
🗣
In case you're wondering, the person in the animation is suppose to be Antonio Vivaldi himself. He was known as the Red Priest because of his long red hair. Yes, Vivaldi was a ginger. His main instrument was the violin.
The second movement of Winter is suppose to be rain. The pizzicato of the string imitates the raindrops on the window.
🗣
I’m a fan. He’s talented, helped orphans/girls developed their careers, and make music that is accessible to all social classes. What an inspiration. One of my favorite artists of all time.

The Four Seasons (Italian: Le quattro stagioni) is a set of four violin concertos by Antonio Vivaldi. Composed circa 1720, The Four Seasons is Vivaldi's best-known work, and is among the most popular pieces in the Baroque music repertoire. The texture of each concerto is varied, each resembling its respective season. For example, "Winter" is peppered with silvery pizzicato notes from the high strings, calling to mind icy rain, whereas "Summer" evokes a thunderstorm in its final movement, which is why the movement is often called "Storm" (as noted in the list of derivative works).
