This puzzle is dedicated to an avid violinist.

Who is the violinist?

Hint:

You don't have to anagram the entire riddle to find out the answer. I mean, what part of the puzzle are you trying to figure out anyway?

I like this a lot!

It's Antonio Vivaldi - a phrase which anagrams perfectly to 'to an avid violinist'!

The title is a clue since

These are four season(ing)s and one of Vivaldi's most famous concerto sets is 'The Four Seasons'.

An alternative answer to this could be:

Jean Sibelius, the composer who as a young man aspired to be a professional violinist, since 'Avid' is the name of the developers of the Sibelius suite of notation software.

Though this ignores the clue in the title.

  • $\begingroup$ It additionally ignores the tag 'anagram' unfortunately, but nice attempt nevertheless, especially for your first answer on Puzzling.SE! (+1) $\endgroup$
