Info zu Pergolesi: Stabat Mater - Rossell: Salve Regina

Es ist der Wurf eines Genies, das mit 26 Jahren starb: Das Stabat Mater von Pergolesi gehört zu den Wundern der geistlichen Musik des 18. Jahrhunderts. Riccardo Minasi und die Hamburger Musiker schöpfen aus ihrer Erfahrung als »Resonanzkörper« für das alte wie für das neue Repertoire und offenbaren die erstaunliche Modernität dieses bewegenden Werks; die Stimmen von Giulia Semenzato und Lucile Richardot finden dabei auf höchst erhabene Art zusammen. Als Nachklang das ergreifende Salve Regina von Joan Rossell, das lange Zeit Pergolesi zugeschrieben wurde.

A winner of the International Competition Toti dal Monte in Treviso and the ‘Premio Farinelli’ at the Concorso Lirico Cittá di Bologna, Italian soprano Giulia Semenzato studied at the Benedetto Marcello Conservatory in Venice and specialised in Baroque music at the Schola Cantorum in Basel, after completing a Bachelors degree in International Law at the University of Udine.

Giulia has continued to champion music from the Baroque era and is an established recording artist. For Arcana, she has recorded Logroscino’s Stabat Mater, and for Accent, Handel’s Messiah under Václav Luks with the Collegium 1704 & Collegium Vocale 1704. Giulia’s debut recording was Cavalli’s Sospiri d’amore under Claudio Cavina for Glossa.
