		<description><![CDATA[Two volumes of the Dutch Handel cantata series with new catalogue additions Aminta e Fillide was probably composed for Handel's principal Roman patron, the Marquis Ruspoli (whose descendent Princess Claudia Ruspoli is official patron of this recording). The first version might have been produced in December 1706 but a comparison of the autograph and early manuscript sources reveals that, for a later performance (perhaps in September 1708), Handel inserted two big arias towards the end of the ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hallelujah! I have long hoped that someone would give us a complete recording of Handel’s cantatas. We have had multiple complete recordings of Bach’s cantatas, but most of Handel’s remain unrecorded. And it is the cantatas with instrumental accompaniment that have received the overwhelming attention of the recording industry. Glossa is currently finishing its series of recordings of the instrumental cantatas. The cantatas accompanied by continuo, ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some rarely heard Handelian treasures are charmingly performed The second volume in Contrasto Armonico's complete Handel cantatas project presents what seem to be two premiere recordings: "O lucenti, o sereni occhi" and "Aure soavi e liete". Both are expertly accompanied by harpsichordist Marco Vitale and cellist Marta Semkiw, and confirm that this most neglected sphere of Handel's output contains plenty of treasures for those willing to ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ad ascoltarle così, una dopo l’altra, le cantate di G. F. Handel ricordano le pagine di un ricettario da negromante, di un centone di incantamenti in cui quel Dulcamara del barocco in musica combina le sue essenze in elisir sonori irresistibili. Ogni passaggio, ogni tema s’intreccia con gli altri in combinazioni che sembrano potenzialmente infinite, ma che in realtà sono ingegnosamente selezionate al solo scopo di ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Marco Vitale, co-fondatore non ancora trentenne dell’ensemble Contrasto Armonico, è un musicista che, entrato precocemente nel mondo dell’esecuzione cameristica, è stato fatalmente calamitato dalla qualificata attività che l’Olanda da sempre sviluppa attorno al barocco musicale, e oggi insegna al Conservatorio reale dell’Aja. Sostenuta dai dieci musici del Contrasto, Stefanie True, soprano di vocalità duttilissima e di luminoso nitore, capace di filature lunghe ed espressive come raramente ...]]></description>

Nun widmen sie sich der kammermusikalischen Vokalmusik Händels, die vormalig zur privaten Unterhaltung von adeligen Mäzenen diente. Die Stücke sind sehr unterschiedlich gestaltet, manche Kantaten ...]]></description>

Ci riferiamo alla nuova avventura intrapresa da Brilliant Classics che ha deciso di affidare al palermitano Marco Vitale, classe 1980 (ma da anni ormai residente in Olanda, dove si è ...]]></description>

Whereas La Risonanza's magnificent seven-volume series for Glossa (now nearly complete) includes only the cantatas with instruments that the composer wrote in Italy, Marco Vitale has resolved to record every single cantata, including those with only continuo accompaniment, and also ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Questo oratorio sacro venne composto ed eseguito da Händel a Roma nel 1708, sotto il patronato del marchese Francesco Maria Ruspoli, che ricevette una forte reprimenda dal pontefice stesso per avere permesso che il ruolo di Maddalena fosse cantato da una donna, il soprano Margherita Durastanti, in contrasto al divieto romano alle cantanti di sesso femminile di calcare le scene. La vicenda sacra descrive l’Angelo che ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tra le gemme musicali nate durante la breve carriera italiana di Georg Friedrich Handel un posto particolare spetta all’Oratorio per la Risurrezione di N.S. Giesu' Cristo. A Roma Handel viveva nelle condizioni piu` favorevoli per comporre e poteva nutrirsi del confronto e dell’amicizia con musicisti quali Alessandro e Domenico Scarlatti, Bernardo Pasquini e Arcangelo Corelli; proprio quest’ultimo, in veste di Maestro di Concerto, presiedera' alla prima ...]]></description>
