Full programme

The concert means to highlight the affections that from Monteverdian finesse lead to the tempestuous vehemence of Vivaldi, crossing different colors and accents that voices and instruments can create in symbiosis with the word. It starts with the beautiful Monteverdiani madrigali “Lettera amorosa” with a single voice in general representative “Se i languidi miei sguardi” and “Con che soavità” concerted to a voice and instruments. It continues with the air of Barbara Strozzi: “Hor che Apollo” serenade for soprano with violins, and with the air of Alessandro Scarlatti “Ombre tacite e sole”. Then comes the duet of Haendel “Per le porte del tormento”, from Sosarme and closes with the famous cantata of Vivaldi “Cessate ormai cessate” for alto Solo con Istromenti. The vocal compositions are interspersed with instrumental music by Dario Castello and Salomone Rossi.
