Drama Queens: 13 Selected Arias from Early Baroque to Classic Mezzo-Soprano/Soprano

by Alan Curtis (Editor), Hal Leonard (Creator)

(Boosey & Hawkes Voice). 'This anthology is the result of the collaboration with the mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato who had expressed the wish to record a CD with my ensemble "Il Complesso Barocco." It should not just be another compilation of famous arias by Handel or Vivaldi, but a collection of pieces of quite different styles and from different epochs which are linked by a common superordinate topic. Da Torbida Procella * IFIGENIA IN Madre Diletta, Abbracciami * Ma Quando Tornerai * Lasciami Piangere * ANTONIO E Morte Col Fiero Aspetto * GIULIO CESARE IN Piangero La Sorte Mia * Intorno All'Idol Mio * Brilla Nell'Alma * Geloso Sospetto * L'INCORONAZIONE DI Disprezzata Regina * Sposa Son Disprezzata * Col Versar, Barbaro, Il Sangue * Vedi Se T'Amo
