The string section of our Atlanta Symphony Orchestra is superb, thanks in no small part to Concertmaster David Coucheron. He will conduct and perform solos in the Jan. 4 Wednesday concert of the Atlanta Symphony. The audience will hear him as a featured soloist in one of the most popular works in the classical repertoire, “The Four Seasons” by Antonio Vivaldi.

David Coucheron joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes via Zoom for a conversation about how Vivaldi evokes the majesty of the seasons through his compositions.
