In his masterful arrangement of Piazzolla's Las cuatro estaciones portenas, the Russian composer Leonid Desyatnikov reimagines Piazzolla's music in a concerto style for solo violin and string orchestra, in combination with elements inspired by Vivaldi's Four Seasons. The Estaciones are a respectful nod to Vivaldi. Vivaldian traces can be heard in the music, most obviously in the closing bars of Invierno Porteno.
