Acerca de este CD
Una vez más, Fabio Bonizzoni propone un imaginativo y seductor programa para su nuevo disco en Glossa, en esta ocasión un «pastiche» imaginario en forma de drama, con música de André Campra y la presencia estelar de la soprano milanesa Roberta Invernizzi. Nos encontramos, sin duda, ante un nuevo éxito en la estela de los discos dedicados a Haendel, Lully y Alessandro Scarlatti.
André Campra, una figura de envergadura en el mundo de la ópera francesa que se sitúa en el tiempo entre Lully y Rameau, no pareció muy impresionado por las trabas que el primero intentó imponer a la música italiana en Francia mientras fue surintendant de la musique du roi. En muchos de las opéras-ballets y comédies-lyriques escritas por Campra a finales del XVII y comienzos del XVIII (el periodo de la cumbre y declive del reinado de Luis XVI) se encuentran intercaladas numerosas arias con texto en italiano (recordemos que el padre de Campra era de origen italiano), entre las que Fabio Bonizzoni y Angela Romagnoli han escogido las que conforman Gli strali d’Amore (Las flechas de Amor), siguiendo además así una práctica que, curiosamente, el propio Campra había ejercitado con su «pastiche» Les Fragments de Mr. de Lully.
Al lado de Bonizzoni e Invernizzi (a la que Glossa ha dedicado recientemente una de sus ediciones «Portrait») encontramos, para esta deliciosa secuencia de recitativos y arias da capo grabados en Brunello (Toscana), a los impresionantes Cyril Auvity y Salvo Vitale y a una Risonanza en estado de gracia. Completa la edición un informativo ensayo a cargo de Barbara Nestola.
Roberta Invernizzi is very clearly one of the finest sopranos to be heard today in the Baroque - and especially the Italian Baroque - repertory, as evidenced by the beauty that she brings not only to operatic roles and vocal roles which have been essayed by many other famous singers both on record and in performance, but also by her sense of clarity in and characterization of unknown music from the 17th and 18th centuries. The rediscovery of so much Italian music is a reflection of the labour and artistry of numerous musical minds but as a kind of prima donna inter pares the Milanese soprano stands out from many others for the intensity of her approach, to the point that she is emerging as a new muse for other distinguished modern-day practitioners of the Italian Baroque such as Fabio Bonizzoni and Antonio Florio who contribute here their own thoughts on the artistry of Roberta Invernizzi, adding to the soprano’s own considerations about her musical life.[read more...]
As talented as Fabio Bonizzoni is in performing music from across the Baroque spectrum – witness his Glossa recording of Bach’s Die Kunst der Fuge – he has become increasingly celebrated for his interpretations of music from Italy. This embraces not only the music of native composers such as Alessandro Scarlatti (the Serenate a Filli album) but, of course, the series of Handel Cantatas in Italian, Lully’s Ballets et récits italiens and now there is a pastiche opera with music by André Campra (born in Aix-en-Provence, but whose father was from Turin). The new recording, Gli strali d’Amore sees Bonizzoni and La Risonanza joined by haute-contre Cyril Auvity and bass Salvo Vitale as well as Bonizzoni’s fellow Milanese musician, the soprano Roberta Invernizzi, whose career as a solo star – as opposed to as her being an ensemble singer – is now starting to blossom (as they say, watch this space...).

Fabio Bonizzoni’s series, with La Risonanza, of Handel Italian cantate con stromenti for Glossa has now come to a conclusion with seven volumes recorded, but not before the group were awarded the 2010 Stanley Sadie Handel Recording Prize for the fifth instalment, Clori, Tirsi e Fileno (with sopranos Yetzabel Arias Fernández and Roberta Invernizzi and contralto Romina Basso in the three named roles). In commending the disc the jury of the Recording Prize made the following comments, “La Risonanza produces a delightful performance that presents all of the strengths and virtues we have come to associate with their recent explorations of Handel’s music.

In the third instalment in Fabio Bonizzoni’s survey of the secular cantatas with instrumental accompaniment composed by Georg Frideric Handel during his stay in Italy, come a quartet of works associated with the Venice-born maecenas Pietro Ottoboni – including the substantial Ero e Leandro, the libretto for which is plausibly considered to have been written by the Cardinal Ottoboni himself. As well as the seldom-performed cantata for bass, Spande ancora a mio dispetto and Ah! Crudel, nel pianto mio scored for soprano solo, Bonizzoni also directs the Spanish-texted No se emendará jamás.[read more...]
