There are several recordings in which Magdalena Kožená and French director Minkowski have worked together: operas, oratorios and masses with the Czech mezzo integrating casts and -as I understand it- two albums with the singer as a soloist, in Handel Italian Cantatas (with Les Musiciens du Louvre-Grenoble, 1999) and French Arias (with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra, 2003). The first of these two corresponds to the recital we offer on this occasion.
Despite the somewhat pompous and willfull critical vision on his oeuvre, while recognizing their high level, Marc Minkowski was very successful 10 years ago with this album, partly because this young and beautiful Czech mezzo-soprano, Magdalena Kožená, who in a short time has captivated critics and the public, both for the quality of his bright tone, unique technique and dramatic sense.
Three cantatas, with a lush orchestral accompaniment, are what make up this disc, and we hear in this live concert on Radio France. They were composed by a young and ambitious Händel in his Roman period, when he frequented the courts of influential Italian cardinals. As noted Emmanuelle Haïm on occasion, we face a different Händel from the known institutional composer of the Coronations Anthems, the Great Oratorios or Te Deums. This is a young musician, passionate, perhaps in love, heir of Corelli, which shows us a dignified and noble Lucrezia that is dragged to the self-destruction, the most successful of the three deliveries.
Two encores close the concert, one of them the very known Doppo la notte -in a superb rendition- from the opera Ariodante, giving a farewell to this magnificent recital.
