Duo Cor Barocco - Micol Pisanu & Francesca Torelli
Scherzi E Lacrime: Songs Of Desire And Disenchantment O
Seventeenth-century Venice is illuminated by Barbara Strozzi, an extraordinary composer, singer and poet now finally being rediscovered. The album "Scherzi e Lacrime" paints her portrait through secular arias and cantatas - the forms she favoured most - revealing a trove of passion, introspection and expressive virtuosity, brought to life by Duo Cor Barocco with soprano Micol Pisanu and lutenist Francesca Torelli. Strozzis cantatas give voice to the subtlest nuances of the soul, portraying love in its many guises, from heartfelt laments to playful skirmishes, through melodies that fuse beauty with refined Baroque art.
