Yet again in Winter, Canino steals the limelight from the soloist with his ingenious additions to the harpsichord score.

At best, his embellishments to the score are a delight, while his solo in the middle movement of Autumn is thoughtful and musical. Again the harpsichord’s parts are unobtrusive, complementing the soloist perfectly. ![]() ![]() Summer here is a mild one while Autumn is mostly a relaxed affair. Recordings of the Seasons are now just as interesting for the continuo as the soloist.
