The associated vision of a virtuoso performance of an orchestra performing Vivaldi's 'Four Seasons' enhances the vibrancy and dynamics of the music.

I don't know what this piece of language performance art means and suspect I disagree but never mind that now.

My question here was not "Which is better, audio or video?" and makers of videos have no reason to feel insulted by any responses I've seen.

There are a number of reasons why someone might choose video over audio, in general or on a particular occasion. My favorite use case is driving a car. I am not disrespecting anyone's video by not watching it while driving, and no, I am not going to set my phone to playing a video then put it on the passenger seat and listen.

Again, my recommendation – and at this point I offer it as a Public Service Announcement – is:

If you make videos of songs as a way of initially publishing those songs (i.e., not using a previously published song as soundtrack) consider releasing your work in both formats. If you do not, you may miss a listener or two.

And now, because it is in my head, I have to listen to the Four Seasons... =8^)
