Composed sometime around 1716-17, Vivaldi's group of four violin concertos The Four Seasons were revolutionary in their use of musical effects to depict natural phenomena. Barking dogs, birds, bees, thunderstorms, frozen landscapes and much else finds musical expression in these ever popular concertos. This classic Edition Peters score of Summer (Concerto for Violin in E Major, Op.8 No.1 / F.I:22 / P.241 / RV269) contains an idiomatic piano accompaniment score and separate violin part.
