Monteverdi’s L’Orfeo is naturally an iconic work for Leonardo García Alarcón. The Argentinian conductor has performed and matured his interpretation of Monteverdi’s masterpiece throughout his life. Together with his group of soloists, the Namur Chamber Choir and the Cappella Mediterranea ensemble, he now presents his vision of L’Orfeo: Monteverdi’s opera is as much the apotheosis of the Renaissance as a testimony to the nascent Baroque style. This is what strikes us when we listen to this new recording, which so eloquently emphasises the contrasts between sometimes nostalgic glances towards the past and the most innovative expressions of operatic language. The printed score, published two years after the premiere in Mantua in 1607, offers contrasts too: is it the snapshot of a specific performance or a ‘blueprint’ intended for future performers? In fact, it is both, and that is where we find the tricky questions that must be answered by those who open this precious document; Leonardo García Alarcón does so here in a manner at once respectful, inventive and theatrical.

Monteverdi’s Orfeo: L'Orfeo Monteverdi

The very first opera in the history of music served by Leonardo García Alarcón.

Leonardo García Alarcón puts his musicality and sense of drama at the service  of Monteverdi's L'Orfeo  , considered the very first opera in the history of Western music. If the score is known, it finds new sounds thanks to the historical research of the Argentinian conductor and his Cappella Mediterranea ensemble. Together, they questioned instrumentation, dynamics, tempo, to deliver a version as readable and expressive as it is natural.
