"Il Pianto" - "The Teardrop". In the history of music, the most heart-rending arias, sighs and laments were composed for the Greek mythical figure Ariadne. Her story features a diverse, fascinating as well as profound sadness and tragedy. A kind of primal lament is probably Claudio Monteverdi's Lamento d'Arianna. Deep sadness pervades the body; the music shakes you to the core. Arias from George Frideric Handel's Arianna in Creta (Ariadne in Crete) run like a golden thread through this intelligently designed program. In Locatelli's Concerto grosso, the solo violin embodies Ariadne's sobs. The soloist of this evening is Czech soprano Hana Blažiková; Les Passions de l'Âme - Orchestra for Early Music Bern is led by Meret Lüthi on the violin.
