Flavio Ferri-Benedetti (Altus) singt weltliche Kantaten des venezianischen Komponisten Bendetto Marcello. Aus der umfangreichen Kantaten-Sammlung des Komponisten sind für dieses Album sechs Highlights ausgewählt, die hier weitestgehend erstmals Digital zu hören sind.

"Klanglich hat Produzent Johannes J. Wallbrecher den Raumklang der St. Stephan Kirche in Therwil (Schweiz) wunderbar eingefangen. Man hat das Gefühl, mitten in der Kirche zu sitzen und der Musik zu lauschen. Superbo del mio affanno – Cantate per Contralto (Benedetto Marcello) ist ein Hörgenuss barocker Klangkunst. Empfehlung!" (Ingo Andruschkewitsch, musikansich.de)
