The finale is a high-energy collision of worlds. We start with the driving strings and distinct textures of Vivaldi, building momentum until the piece transforms into the jazz-inflected harmonies and rhythms of Gershwin. It features big orchestration and technical piano work, bringing the concerto to a fitting, exuberant close.

Vivaldi and Gershwin

Version choirs Epic music is the idea of a song (usually instrumental or cinematic in nature) that
brings home a very clear feeling . It may be inspirational or even spiritual. Perhaps it is meant to get
our hearts racing with adrenaline. In any case, epic songs take us out of our surroundings. Music
ignites our imagination and this adds a very powerful layer to the way people experience visual
content.
