I love Vivaldi's "the four seasons" what other classical composers and violinists do you think I would enjoy

That piece is from the baroque era and is pretty much a violin "concerto". Vivaldi wrote tons of this type of music

You could try some of Vivaldi's other music. A lot of his music remained undiscovered until around the 1930's, and over the years much more by him has been discovered and recorded.

Mozart's violin concerto's are good, and Beethoven's string quartets. Pagannini's violin concertos are quite something to listen to as well.

Then there is Elgar, Finzi, Walton, Vaughan Williams, Sibelius...............

But it is really a question of discovering.

Pachelbel's Canon in D

Albinioni's Adagio

Handel's Water Music

Thais' Meditation

Paganini's Vioin Concerto #2, 24 Caprices or Cantabile in D Major

Bach's Air on the G String

Giuseppe Verdi's "Aida" is wonderful.

"The Planets" is another good set... I think it actually may be by Vivaldi as well.
