Castrati, with their distinctive range, left their mark on the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries with the purity and clarity of their vocal timbre.
A musical journey back in time, with a countertenor accompanied by musicians playing period instruments.
True symbols of the purity and musical aesthetics of bel canto, they have always exerted an almost mystical fascination over their audiences.
Few artists today are capable of bewitching you like a Farinelli.
Mathieu Salama, the lyric sopranist and countertenor with such a singular voice and sometimes strange inflections, will be paying exceptional tribute to the castrati during this concert.
He revives the repertoire of arias, sacred arias and opera arias composed for the great castrati by the greatest masters of the Baroque period (Handel, Caccini, Caldara, Porpora, Bach, Purcell).
Men have often sought in instruments sonorities close to the human voice.
The alchemy between Mathieu Salama's voice and the sounds of Bruno Angé's viola, Olivier Pelmoine's theorbo, Sara Chenal's violin and Astor Pelmoine's harp is a unique musical experience.
