Description:Alongside the renowned female composers of the 17th century, such as Francesca Caccini and Barbara Strozzi, and the leading singers (the prime donne) that dominated the stages of opera houses, such as Anna Renzi and Giulia Masotti, we should also appreciate the considerable number of excellent - yet largely unknown - "virtuose". Though customarily concealed amidst the ranks of a court, serving as maids of honour to a queen, princess or noblewoman, these were extremely accomplished musicians who often provided vital inspiration for the celebrated composers of the day. This recording, which stemmed from a research project dedicated to the virtuose working in 17th-century Rome, presents a selection of compositions that may well have formed part of their repertoire. The famous Lamento d'Arianna stands out among these pieces, in a version that was preserved in a contemporary Roman manuscript that Monteverdi very likely brought with him during his visit to the papal city in the autumn of 1610. In this album, which marks her solo debut, Carlotta Colombo, one of the most highly esteemed singers in today's Italian Baroque scene, pays tribute to the creativity of these extraordinary women, thereby reinstating them to the centre of their artistic environment and restoring to them the recognition that was often denied to them during their lifetime.
"Arianna in Rome" is a captivating CD release by Colombo / Anima & Corpo, produced by the renowned label ARCANA. This album presents an exquisite interpretation of baroque music, focusing on the mythological figure Ariadne as depicted in Roman musical traditions. The ensemble Anima & Corpo, led by director and harpsichordist Fabio Bonizzoni (Colombo), is celebrated for its historically informed performances and expressive artistry. Their previous recordings have received critical acclaim for their authenticity and emotional depth, making them a standout group in early music circles. ARCANA, established in 1992, has built a reputation for producing high-quality classical recordings with meticulous attention to detail and sound fidelity. The label collaborates with leading artists specializing in early music and has contributed significantly to the rediscovery of rare repertoire.
