About
The characters brought to life in the Baroque-era operas of great composers such as Handel and Vivaldi – protagonists whose passions, loves, misfortunes, hopes, and longings unfold before us on stage – are, in reality, musical depictions of the myriad journeys experienced by the human soul.
The magnificent mezzo-soprano Julie Boulianne gives to the chosen arias all their grandeur, their grace and their beauty and the quality of the ensemble Clavecin en concert’s playing is once again irreproachable. Gorgeous!

Boulianne navigates the stormy seas with terrific bravura and agility. Her androgynous voice - voluptuous in its upper reaches, reedy as a countertenor in its lower register - is perfect for a breeches role like Sesto in Giulio Cesare and, of course, for the various arias here written for castratos...Ensemble playing is slick, and the recording...is luscious and detailed.
