Amor profano

Description

ATTENTION LITTLE MASTERPIECES! Profane Love follows Sacred Love... After the superb Amor Sacro, released last February and acclaimed by the press, ANDREA MARCON reunites once again the VENICE BAROQUE ORCHESTRA and the German soprano SIMONE KERMES for this second volume dedicated to Vivaldi: Amor Profano. SIMONE KERMES proves to be the ideal interpreter of these pieces, and the VENICE BAROQUE ORCHESTRA is at its zenith here. ANDREA MARCON knows how to listen to the soloist without neglecting his orchestra. As usual, energy never rhymes with brusqueness nor virtuosity with aggressiveness. This is a discographic reference that imposes itself on us... Here is the nice surprise of this beginning of the year! An accessible program that pleases (as we know since the Vivaldi Album by CECILIA BARTOLI!), and that can seduce non-specialized listeners: Vivaldi's music is completely in tune with the times. The album features several world premieres and thus contributes to the discovery of this composer whose genius we never tire of admiring. Pure happiness!
