Les Paladins - Madrigali E Dialoghi - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

In this new b•records , Jérôme Correas and Les Paladins invite you to travel to the court of Mantua, at the time when Vivaldi invented for the musicians he had at his service a new genre, the concerto da camera. Both extremely virtuosic and expressive, the pieces that compose the Tempesta di mare program testify to a privileged moment in the composer's career, exploring timbres and rhythms in an explosion of flavors.

Ormindo is the third melodrama to have been born of the collaboration between librettist Giovanni Faustini and composer Francesco Cavalli (1602-76). The plot tells the story of two pairs of lovers (Erisbe and Ormindo, Sicle and Amida) as they experience reversals of fortune, disguise and a fictive death, all of which culminates in the agnizione of Ormindo as Hariadeno's long-lost son in an incomparable coup de theatre. In Ormindo, as in the majority of Venetian operas from the same period, all is wagered upon the expressive power of the voices. The symphonies and ritornelli, sometimes merely sketched out in the score and left to be completed by the singers during performance, have the role of giving body to the fine texture of the character's monologues and dialogues. InchThis vivid performance has plenty of dramatic conviction... This engaging performance by Les Paladins is an important part of a patchy discography. (Gramophone) Album Tracks 1.
