Furioso

Xavier Sabata (countertenor), Le Concert de l’Hostel Dieu, Franck-Emmanuel Comte

The limits of passion, powerfully embodied by Xavier Sabata! The myth of Orlando furioso, imagined by Ludovico Ariosto in the 16th century, is one of the most fertile sources for dramatic and musical imagination. Blending chivalric heroism, romantic turmoil, and psychological vertigo, it explores the boundaries of passion and the fractures of the human soul, offering Baroque composers an ideal ground to express the tension between reason and madness, order and chaos. This programme bears witness to that richness: a journey through the many faces of Orlando, featuring excerpts from operas by Vivaldi, Handel, Steffani, Fux, and Porpora, where recitatives, arias, and instrumental movements reflect the depths of his inner world.
