About ""The Four Seasons" Summer-Adagio Presto" by Antonio Vivaldi

Summer's 'Adagio Presto' is a heat-haze hallucination: the adagio droops like wilting flowers, then the presto strikes like sudden thunder. Vivaldi captures the moment a languid afternoon snaps into violence. The strings sweat and shimmer—a portrait of nature holding its breath before the storm breaks.
