Almost 20 years after her landmark Vivaldi album, Bartoli turns to
the composer once again for her brand new solo recording. It is a
glorious collection of Vivaldi arias, performed with French baroque
orchestra Ensemble Matheus under Jean-Christophe Spinosi.
Bartoli’s 1999 recording The Vivaldi Album shone a spotlight
on the Italian as a composer of vocal works, sparking a revival in the
operas of Vivaldi, who had hitherto been primarily known for his
concerti. The album sold 700,000 copies in five years and went Gold in
six countries. It paved the way for similarly trailblazing releases,
including the Italian arias of Christoph Willibald Gluck, the legendary
castratos (on the album ‘Sacrificium’) and Bartoli’s personal
19th-century hero, the mezzo-soprano Maria Malibran.
