| | Description: | As Gramophone noted of a recent Brilliant Classics issue, â??EstĂ©van Velardi and the Alessandro Scarlatti Consort have notched up an impressively broad discography of
unjustly neglected Italian Baroque masters.' This release presents a reissue of a recording made in 1995, the premiere on disc for Giuditta. This is a two-act oratorio
composed by Alessandro Scarlatti, who has been the particular focus of Velardiâ??s work on record, encompassing other treasurable discoveries issued on Brilliant Classics such as the Oratorio per La Santissima TrinitĂ (BC95535), Il dolore di Maria Vergine (BC95534) and San Filippo Neri (BC94037), which was welcomed by Gramophone for
â??Velardiâ??s admirable zeal, worthy endeavour, natural pacing and the shapely string playing of his band.â?? Giuditta is based on the Biblical story of Judith, a beautiful Israelite widow who insinuates herself within the camp of the conquering Assyrian tribe and deceives their general, Holofernes, before decapitating him and carrying off his head
in triumph. This is the second version of the oratorio, known as the Cambridge version after the location of the manuscript when it was turned up in modern times. Scarlatti
had considered the original version, composed for Rome in 1693, to be his finest oratorio. This is no mean assessment from the composer of masterworks which have
been more celebrated in our own time such as La Maddalena, for their expressive pathos and superbly grateful vocal lines. At any rate, Scarlatti conducted a revision of
Giuditta four years later, scaling down the forces of the original to three solo voices, strings and continuo: it is this version, incisive and dramatic, which is performed
by the Alessandro Stradella Consort. - ALESSANDRO STRADELLA CONSORT/ESTEVAN VELARDIAs Gramophone noted of a recent Brilliant Classics issue, 'Estévan Velardi and the Alessandro Scarlatti Consort have notched up an impressively broad discography of unjustly neglected Italian Baroque masters.'
