Il Diluvio universale by Falvetti, czw 26 maj 2022, od (2022/2022), Dyrygent Leonardo García Alarcón, Forum am Schlosspark, Ludwigsburg, Niemcy

Leonardo García Alarcón is a master of rediscoveries: »Il diluvio universale« had been forgotten for more than three centuries before the conductor performed it again in 2010 with his Cappella Mediterranea. The retelling of the Old Testament Deluge and the salvation of biodiversity through Noah's Ark teems with fantasy and gripping drama. García Alarcón describes the oratorio by the Baroque composer Michelangelo Falvetti as a rousing »deluge of emotions«. Between the rising tide and the raging waves, a pull is created that, against the background of the increasing number of catastrophic floods, appeals to our own actions all the more clearly.
