Locatelli:
Harmonic Labyrinth Concerto

Rising star violinist Chloe Chua makes her recording debut on Pentatone together with the Singapore Symphony Orchestra, presenting Vivaldi’s Four Seasons alongside Locatelli’s Harmonic Labyrinth. With the Four Seasons, Chloe returns to a piece that’s very dear to her, as she won the joint-first prize at the 2018 Yehudi Menuhin International Competition for Young Violinists with her performance of “Winter”. Despite her young age, Chloe performs regularly with several worldclass ensembles and enjoys a huge following on social media thanks to her breathtaking technique and charismatic stage personality. This album, recorded as Artist-in-Residence of the Singapore Symphony Orchestra, launches her international recording career.

“Recording the Four Seasons is a dream come true for me. I grew up listening to classical music and Vivaldi’s Four Seasons was one of the pieces that my mom would often play on her CD player at home.

It brings back fond memories of my time at the Menuhin Competition in 2018, when I played my favourite season, Winter, with the wonderful Orchestre de Chambre de Geneve in the magnificent Victoria Hall in Geneva.

Playing through the complete Four Seasons makes me feel as if I have lived in Italy for a year, experiencing the changing weather, the activities unique to every season, and living the joys and sorrows of it all alongside its people. It is very meaningful to me. - Chloe Chua
