The Vivaldi Album - Vivaldi The Vivaldi Album - Vivaldi
Mezzo Cecilia Bartoli could easily rest on her laurels as one of today's most charismatic, ... more
character singers for her lively portrayals of
Mozart and Rossini heroines. But it's been
particularly exciting to observe her growth as an
artist in exploring the exuberant world of baroque
opera, with its range of pyrotechnic demands--both
vocal and emotional. Bartoli's show-stopping
virtuosity in a Vivaldi aria from her Live in
Italy recital gave a tantalising sample of her
finesse in that style. For The Vivaldi Album,
Bartoli conducted extensive research into the
composer's manuscripts (a documentary tracing her
quest is planned for subsequent screening).
Although he's best known for his concertos--in
typically baroque fashion, two of the arias in
fact recycle material from The Four
Seasons--Vivaldi was a ferociously prolific
composer of operas for the cutting-edge theatres
of his time and the arias gathered here
demonstrate the word-painting magic of his music,
from the sylvan setting of duetting flageolets in
"Di due rai languire costante" to the storm-tossed
passions of "Anch'il mar par che sommerga", where
Bartoli spins out ripples of rapid-fire coloratura
with a gravity-defying accuracy that will leave
your head spinning. In addition to many such
examples of vocal acrobatics, Bartoli brings
exquisite nuance and limpid tone to the delicate
echo effects of "Zeffiretti, che sussurrate" and
there's no better test for the remarkable
flexibility of her range--full and dusky at the
bottom and thrilling at the top--than the huge
intervallic leaps of "Dopo un'orrida procella".
With her naturally large voice, Bartoli can at
times tend to histrionic excess (in the recitative
to the short aria from "L'Orlando finto pazzo"),
but the expressive colour of her phrasing is
wonderfully matched throughout by Il Giardino
Armonico's lively panache. All power to Bartoli in
her goal of reviving this neglected aspect of
Vivaldi's output. --Thomas May
