  • Tenor Ian Bostridge explores the "torment of love" in Italian opera arias from the mid-17th to the mid-18th century, with conductor Antonio Florio and the ensemble Cappella Neapolitana. Discover the album: w.lnk.to/tdaLY
    The modern perception of the "Italian tenor" is very much formed by the operas and performance practice of the 19th and early 20th centuries. With the arias on his album Tormento d’amore, Ian Bostridge demonstrates the important place that the tenor voice held in Italian opera from the mid-17th to the mid-18th century - often thought of as the era of the castrato. It was at this time that the "center of gravity" of Italian opera shifted from Venice, where the genre originated, to Naples.

    Apparently this aria is not totally original to Vivaldi -many other Italian baroque composers used the basic framework of this tune in their compositions and Vivaldi did his own "take" on it -Gasparini was another Venetian composer who used the tune.

    beautiful vid. musicians today knock it out of the ballpark every time - astounding. elocution excellent! profundo fully expressive w/o heaviness. good & true color in a very monotoned number. delivery agile and strong. what more could one want? love the setting too! the relaxed atmosphere of elegance is sweet! a charmer, this one! a pleasure! btw, the natural tenor voice is becoming rather a rarity these days - the sound here is a nice refreshment!

    • @operafairy
      @operafairy 2 роки тому +8

      You obviously have a wrong model of natural tenor voice. Bostridge has a voice for comprimario roles. His sound is miserable and technique is so far from ideal. This flat, thin, colourless sound without any volume and deepness and with some age fading is mistakenly associated with baroque tenor voices. Check out some historical literature and try to understand WHAT is authentic baroque tenor is. This is real profanation.

      @@operafairy sometimes it is wonderful that people sing nonetheless - and that is also abundantly beautiful. the vocalist is not enrolled in a contest here, in which anyone is to judge. for every gorgeous song, there are countless interpretations. some flawless. others close. most are simply enjoyed - and many are enjoyed by only some. i greatly enjoy this and appreciate that the man chose to sing here - this is true for many. technical perfection does not enter the issue, thankfully. indeed, it is not even germane. l love te Kanawa, but her Broadway tunes, hmm-mm. same situation w/ Jarousky, Orlinsky, and Scholl, et. al. - perfection most of the time, maybe not always. Bostridge attains perfection also, and just as often. technically and in every other way, IMO. is not a Baroque singer, but if you are looking for this number in Baroque and seek both historical & technical perfection (or very close to it!) - see: ua-cam.com/video/1Of8GTaEFP0/v-deo.html Valer Sabados. apparently caught on someone's iPhone! actually and in complete honesty, i enjoy both interpretations equally - that's just the way of it - music is the food of love - sing on!!!

      @OrganicOrganist thank you so much for your kind support! Agreed, it has nothing to do with green, other personal or non-objective feelings, it's only about real love for Opera and baroque music in particular and some theoretical base of course. It is very dissapointed when people try to associate such voices as Bostridge' with the ideal model for baroque singing and present it as a some ''tenor's benchmark''. Because of such wrong position we have so many bad tenors in baroque repertoire. It is a real joy that someone can HEAR the truth.

    I have always liked Ian's dabble in (italian) baroque music, especially the arie composed for Francesco Borosini and Annibale Pio Fabri in his 2010 "Three Baroque Tenors" CDs. It's a pleasure to finally listen to a (big name) Tenor sing this aria which was originally composed for the Tenor Pellegrino Tomii in Vivaldi's "Siroe" (unsure if the extant manuscript for Tenor was actually a version for Antonio Barbieri, he did have a lower voice than Tomii).
    Despite Ian's obvious romantic phrasings and "not too italian" singing style, I still enjoy his takes of baroque pieces. However, I find this one to be maybe too placid... Farnace/Cosroe is fearing for the life of his son here, but everything, including the orchestra, is just too... still... Where is the continuo 😂😂😂 ??? I'd add tons of ornament to depict the character's trembling ! The singing is smooth, pretty but it's as if they're merely reading through the piece...
    The best version that I've heard is actually sung by Xavier Sabata and directed by George Petrou, on Sabata's CD "Catharsis".

      @OrganicOrganist The essence of his career was always his imaginative re-interpretation of standard Lieder repertoire. It was never the voice, which now shows worsening of a problem he had withe the management of breath - the ends of phrases wobbling below the pitch. On the interpretative side he shows what has been true of so many singers as they age, the exaggeration of trademarks. They become parodies of themselves. I prefer to remember the several thought provoking recitals I heard him give at the height of his career.

    @PMS1950 2 роки тому +2

    Bostridge has a particular 'yearning' timbre to his voice, which after a while becomes, at least for me, rather irksome. He is clearly an intelligent and sensitive singer with a love not only of the music but a need also to get to the heart of the poetry and express both with equal intensity. In this instance the instrumental playing is fabulous but the vocal interpretation very much a matter of personal taste.
