Handel, Hasse: Arias (2006) more music like this

performed by Les Violons du Roy, Vivica Genaux (mezzo-soprano), Bernard Labadie (conductor)
composed by George Frederick Handel, Johann Adolf Hasse

It takes a spectacular female voice to do justice to the soprano arias of Italian opera of the early eighteenth century, for this music, of which the arias by Handel and Johann Adolf Hasse recorded here offer quintessential examples, was the domain of the castrato, the surgically castrated male singer who had the power of male musculature but the ...

performed by Benoît Loiselle (cello), Pascale Gigučre (violin), Les Violons du Roy, Jean-Marie Zeitouni (conductor)
composed by Astor Piazzolla, José Bragato

The juxtaposition of Astor Piazzolla and Antonio Vivaldi may at first seem like an unusual artistic decision. But after listening to this arrangement of Piazzolla's Four Seasons of Buenos Aires, which includes direct quotes from Vivaldi's Four Seasons, the synthesis seems very natural. Also changed from the original, the use of solo violin and ...

Bartók: Les Violons du Roy (2008) more music like this

composed by Béla Bartók

Québec-based string orchestra Les Violons du Roy was established as an early music ensemble focusing on the Baroque and Classical eras, so it's surprising to see the group moving into modern repertoire, but this isn't its first foray; this release was preceded by a 2006 album of Piazzolla tangos. In this recording of music by Bartók, the group is ...
