Gidon Kremer, along with his chamber orchestra, the Kremerata Baltica, wanted to build a bridge between different art forms and musical worlds, supplementing Philip Glass’s violin concerto, The American Four Seasons, with distinct video installations for live concert tours and promotional releases. He assigned each of the four movements to a different multimedia artist, selecting the legendary avant-garde filmmaker Jonas Mekas specifically to visualize Movement IV. Most of the footage comes from Mekas's travels in Italy, also appearing in works such as The Song of Italy, The Song of Assisi, and the later compilation Travel Songs.
