Approved

Apparu en Italie à la fin du XVIIe siècle, l’opera seria constitue le genre dramatique majeur de tout le XVIIIe siècle, essaimant dans l’Europe entière – à l’exception de la France.
Stefano Montanari et Lawrence Zazzo nous proposent un cheminement original à travers ce répertoire, des chefs-d’œuvre les plus fêtés de Haendel ou de Porpora aux pépites de compositeurs encore méconnus. Pour encadrer cette traversée, un flamboyant concerto baroque de Francesco Maria Veracini (1690-1768) et un élégant concerto classique de la violoniste virtuose Maddalena Laura Lombardini Sirmen (1745-1818).

Appearing in Italy at the end of the 17th century, opera seria was the major dramatic genre of the entire 18th century, spreading throughout Europe – with the exception of France.
Stefano Montanari and Lawrence Zazzo offer us an original journey through this repertoire, from the most celebrated masterpieces of Handel or Porpora to the nuggets of still unknown composers. To frame this crossing, a flamboyant baroque concerto by Francesco Maria Veracini (1690-1768) and an elegant classical concerto by the virtuoso violinist Maddalena Laura Lombardini Sirmen (1745-1818).
