MAY 1 2009 BOND CELEBRATES LAUNCH OF NEW PEUGEOT CONVERTIBLE WITH FREE PERFORMANCE! WESTFIELD LONDON SATURDAY 9 MAY 2009 MAY 2009 PEUGEOT COMMISSIONS BOND TO RECORD BRAND NEW ARRANGEMENT OF VIVALDI’S FOUR SEASONS IN CELEBRATION OF THE LAUNCH OF PEUGEOT’S 308CC A CONVERTIBLE FOR ALL SEASONS Bond, the original electric string quartet and the best-selling string quartet of all time, have brought their unique sound to classical music’s most popular and iconic work, Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. The modern interpretation of the Baroque masterpiece was arranged and recorded by Bond exclusively for Peugeot to mark the launch of its new 308CC model; an innovative addition to the Peugeot family with a first-of-its kind Airwave Neck Heated System that allows the enjoyment of a convertible all year round. Peugeot commissioned Bond to write the arrangements and the four tracks, each representing one of the seasons, will soon be available for free download exclusively from Peugeot's website FREE for a limited period only. In recording their take on the Four Seasons, Bond were inspired by their good friend and colleague, Nigel Kennedy, and the genre-defying virtuosic group aims to bring to Vivaldi’s timeless classic the modern rigour and panache that has become their unique musical signature. This is also the first time Bond unveil their new member, Elspeth Hanson. Elspeth is the beautiful and hugely talented violinist who played alongside David Beckham, guitar legend, Jimmy Page, and Leona Lewis at the British handover at the closing ceremony of the Beijing Olympics. Elspeth was chosen as one of Bond’s new violinists from scores of violinists in 2008 and is just one sign of Bond’s thrilling new sound. Eos, Elspeth, Gay-Yee and Tania will also be staging a string of live, free performances as they accompany the Peugeot 308CC road-show throughout the country; the Bond girls will be performing their Four Seasons plus a selection of their most popular tracks, including Allegretto, Victory, Explosive, Shine and Samba! Dates will be announced soon. For a taste of the Bond girls' FOUR SEASONS, please see the Peugeot website
