About
Carissimi was the greatest exponent of the Latin sacred historia (oratorio). With dramatic flair, remarkable imagination and a verbal sensitivity equal to Monteverdi’s, he brought Biblical characters vividly to life. Alexander Weimann is one of the most sought-after ensemble directors, soloists and chamber music partners of his generation.
