This is the Full Score of Philip Glass's wonderful Violin Concerto No.2 'American Four Seasons' arranged for Violin and Orchestra. The piece was commissioned by Toronto SymphonyOrchestra and London Philharmonic Orchestra among others the world premiere was held in Toronto on December 9th 2009 conducted by Peter Oundjian. At this premiere the violinist was Robert McDuffie for whomthe Concerto was composed. During the summer and autumn of 2009 Glass composed this work after many years of exchanges with McDuffie. His idea of creating a work that would be influenced by and an accompaniment toVivaldi's 'The Four Seasons'. Interestingly Glass has provided no indication in the score of where each season falls making it open for interpretation by the performers or the audience.

The present full score showsa suggested instrumentation  which was devised by Colin Currie in conjunction with the composer. Soloists  should attempt to match the timbres used but should not feel constrained by the  exact choice ofinstruments.COMPOSER’S NOTEThe percussion instruments used in a table of noises in some ways represent the odd things that were on my great uncle Ash’s parlour table that fascinated me as a child.

From birth he was quite severely handicapped in one of his legs and couldn’t walk too far without his trusty crutch.He kept everything he needed within arm’s length. In the list of instruments for the solo part there’s everything from deep log drum sounds to very high metallic chime sounds. Wood glass metal and a whistle. Mostlysmall-scale things with a large gong behind used sparingly. I think that we managed to keep below 30 instruments in all which I was keen to do. I didn’t want scores of things that are only played once they have to earn theirkeep. I didn’t want to use a marimba but thought that trying to make the xylophone sound in a more expressive way would be more of a challenge. The percussionist sits for much of the time on a Cajon a flamenco instrument which isessentially a wooden box. The player hits the front of the box in various ways rather as you play a conga. There are guitar strings inside and bells to add to the overall colour. I would like to thank Colin Currie for the
