Alessandro Stradella hinterließ ein Oeuvre von über 300 Werken in den verschiedensten barocken Kompositionsformen. »San Giovanni Battista«, ein Oratorium über das Leben Johannes des Täufers, hatte er 1675 zur Aufführung bei den Palmsonntags-Feierlichkeiten komponiert. Diese Einspielung markiert für Hyperion den Beginn der Zusammenarbeit mit Alessandro de Marchi und seiner Academia Montis Regalis, die sich mit zahlreichen Einspielungen von italienischer Barockmusik international einen hervorragenden Ruf erspielt haben.
Product-Information:
Stradella was murdered in Genoa when he was forty-two years old. Until then he enjoyed a dazzling career as a freelance composer, writing on commission, collaborating with distinguished poets, producing over three hundred works in a variety of genres. His musical style is distinctive, characterized by fluid lines, great skill in counterpoint, and harmony which was tonal but which occasionally offers chords that were unusual then and striking even today. The oratorio San Giovanni Battista was written for performance on Palm Sunday in the Holy Year of 1675 where some fourteen oratorios were commissioned by the confraternity of the church of San Giovanni dei Fiorentini in Rome – an auspicious event. San Giovanni Battista is a deeply ‘Baroque’ score, vibrant, rhythmically insistent, requiring singers to perform phrases of difficult fiorituras or deeply moving legato lines. The libretto is dramatic and emotionally vivid, and the music is closely tied to the text, creating a distinctly operatic atmosphere—described by the disc’s conductor Alessandro De Marchi as ‘a true Salome’. Hyperion is delighted to announce a new recording relationship with Academia Montis Regalis, of which this disc is the first fruit. The group’s previous recordings on French label Opus 111 have won many international awards. The Academia Montis Regalis Foundation started its courses in Baroque and Classical orchestral training in the town of Mondovì in 1994. The aim was to offer young Italian and foreign musicians interested in the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century repertoire the opportunity to engage in a unique experience. Thus was born the Academia Montis Regalis, a period instrument orchestra that has been regularly directed by leading international early music specialists since the year of its foundation, including Ton Koopman, Jordi Savall, Christopher Hogwood, Reinhardt Goebel and many others. The principal director has for some years been Alessandro De Marchi, who has overseen an important project with the Academia Montis Regalis, recording all of Vivaldi’s manuscripts preserved in the National Library of Turin. Right from the start the training programme was accompanied by highly successful concert performances. Today the orchestra is a professional ensemble with a solid international reputation.
Rezensionen
'Stradella is probably more famous for having been murdered … than for his music. That's a pity, for the latter, vital, free-flowing and bold, is well worth exploration. The oratorio San Giovanni Battista, composed in 1675, is one of his finest works, a thrilling drama calling for virtuoso singing of the highest order. The Academia Montis Regalis's playing is wonderfully alive' (Sunday Times)
'Stradella's score, characterized by constant variety, is ravishing throughout … The whole band plays with tremendous panache and stylistic aplomb' (International Record Review)
'In dichten 88 Minuten spult Stradella mit großen dramatischen Effekten, hinreißenden Chorälen und brillanter Orchestrierung die Geschichte von Johannes dem Täufer und die Liebe zu Salome' (Musik / Klassik / Neuerscheinungen)
