Here, their fictionalized story unfolds as Antonio Vivaldi guides Anna Maria toward becoming one of the most celebrated violinists of her time and finding a home in the heart of her famiglia musicale. With Anna Maria’s synesthesia — her gift for seeing music — and an imagined context for the creation of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, this is a poetic tale of belonging, diversity and music history, set amidst the striking architecture of Venice.
