Vivaldi & his Muses

Program: arias and duets from operas by Vivaldi, concertos

Whether as a pupil or performer, Vivaldi had a rich and sometimes ambiguous relationship with women, some of whom became true muses. Mezzo-soprano Anna Girò, a true Vivaldian muse, sang many leading roles in the Venetian composer's operas. In the soprano register, Vivaldi was particularly fond of Benedetta Soresina, a singer of European renown. These two exceptional performers inspired the Venetian genius to create his most expressive lyrical works. He dedicated some magnificent arias to them, which are reproduced on this disc. Two talented young soloists, finalists in the Froville International Baroque Singing Competition, portray Girò and Soresina.
