Violist turns violin soloist for The Four Seasons by Vivaldi and Piazzolla’s Four Seasons of Buenos Aires in Hong Kong concert

  • Andrew Ling, principal violist of the Hong Kong Philharmonic, played the violin like a virtuoso in Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons and Piazzolla work inspired by it
  • For most of the concert one would not have known the violin was not his instrument, and the orchestra acquitted themselves well in general
