13 Selected Arias from Early Baroque to Classic Mezzo-Soprano/Soprano
‘This anthology is the result of the collaboration with the mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato who had expressed the wish to record a CD with my ensemble Il Complesso Barocco. It should not just be another compilation of famous arias by Handel or Vivaldi, but a collection of pieces of quite different styles and from different epochs which are linked by a common superordinate topic. Contents: BERENICE: Da Torbida Procella · IFIGENIA IN AULIDE: Madre Diletta, Abbracciami · ALCINA: Ma Quando Tornerai · FREDEGUNDA: Lasciami Piangere · ANTONIO E CLEOPATRA: Morte Col Fiero Aspetto · GIULIO CESARE IN EGITTO: Piangero La Sorte Mia · ORONTEA: Intorno All’Idol Mio · ALESSANDRO: Brilla Nell’Alma · OCTAVIA: Geloso Sospetto · L’INCORONAZIONE DI POPPEA: Disprezzata Regina · MEROPE: Sposa Son Disprezzata · BERENICE: Col Versar, Barbaro, Il Sangue · ARMIDA: Vedi Se T’Amo
