| |  | Amoureuses - Patricia Petibon
Gluck: | Venez, secondez mes désirs from Armide Non, cet affreux devoir... Je t'implore et je tremble (from Iphigénie en Tauride) Ah! Si la liberté me doit être ravie from Armide | Haydn: | Ragion nell'alma siede (from Il mondo della luna) Salamelica from Lo speziale Odio, furor, dispetto from Armida Numi possenti aita!...Dov'è l'amato bene?...Del mio core (from L'anima del filosofo, ossia Orfeo ed Euridice) Fra un dolce deliro from L'isola disabitata | Mozart: | Vorrei spiegarvi, oh Dio! K418 Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen (from Die Zauberflöte) L'ho perduta, me meschina (from Le Nozze di Figaro) Giunse alfin il momento... Deh, vieni, non tardar… (from Le nozze di Figaro) Vanne, t'affretta… Ah se il crudel periglio (from Lucio Silla) Fra i pensier più funesti (from Lucio Silla) Tiger! Wetze nur die Klauen! (from Zaïde) Le perfide Renaud me fuit from Armide |
Exceptional French soprano Patricia Petibon joins the DG roster with her debut album Amoureuses, featuring arias by Mozart, Haydn and Gluck Petibon has established herself as one of the most interesting and versatile sopranos of our day and has been widely acclaimed for her outstanding acting abilities that make her merge completely with whatever role she sings and represents on stage With Amoureuses Petibon circles around the ever-important topic of love and desire – in a series of character-portraits she explores how the very different female characters in the operas of Mozart, Haydn, and Gluck respond to the challenges of love Ranging from the dramatic fury in Haydn’s Odio, furor, dispetto and Mozart’s Der Hölle Rache . . . to the sweetness in his Deh vieni, and from the desperate sadness of his L’ho perduta . . . me meschina! to the grandeur of Gluck’s Ah! Si la liberté, the album is the perfect showcase for Petibon’s exceptional skills of expression and characterization For Amoureuses Petibon teamed up with the acclaimed period-instrument band Concerto Köln and conductor Daniel Harding, a collaboration that guarantees an effervescent, entrancing approach to the music of the Viennese masters – a captivating debut to watch for! “The French soprano's DG debut is a considerable and attractive success. There are excerpts from Gluck's Armide, too, including a heartfelt air from Act 3. In the last scene, Petibon is mesmerising in the recitative - excellent support here, and indeed throughout, from Daniel Harding - before, again, bursting out in fury.” Gramophone Magazine, December 2008 “Patricia Petibon's choice of arias by the three greatest of late 18th-century opera composers is tailor-made to display her range, in terms of both drama and sheer vocal compass. …her debut disc for DG is pure pleasure, and Daniel Harding and Concerto Köln provide first-rate support.” BBC Music Magazine, November 2008 ***** | | | (Sorry, download not available in your country) | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
