About

After a long process of reading and selection, Philippe Grisvard, together with Lucile Richardot, ventures into the world of Alessandro Scarlatti's cantatas.

For the Sicilian composer, this genre was an ideal field of invention and experimentation that allowed him to develop his infinitely sophisticated and tormented art, still little known today, and which the two artists reveal in this virtuoso and original programme.

Reviews

[Phillipe Grisvard] displays his gift for characterisation in the accompaniments with the skippy adornment he provides at the thought of dying happy in ‘Io morirei contento’ […]. [Lucile Richardot] gives full voice to the pastoral yearning and dances easily across the changes of time in the aria ‘Che mi giova?’.
