Editor's info:
With the 10 arias on Tormento d’amore, Ian Bostridge demonstrates the important place that the tenor voice held in Italian opera from the mid-17th to the mid-18th century – often thought of as the era of the castrato. At this time, there were two main centres of opera in Italy: Venice, where such composers as Cavalli, Vivaldi, Cesti, Stradella, Sartorio and Legrenzi were active, and Naples, home to Provenzale, Caresana, Vinci and Fago. In addition to arias – two of them in world premiere recordings – the album offers five instrumental sinfonie and a traditional Neapolitan song, ‘Lu cardillo’, or ‘The Goldfinch’, a songbird closely associated with Naples. Bostridge is partnered by conductor Antonio Florio and his ensemble Cappella Neapolitana.

BBC Music Magazine * * * *
Bostridge is at his best in those pieces requiring technically adroit command and intelligent poise…The sunlight returns at the end when Bostridge serves up a wonderfully captivating performance of the traditional Neapolitan song, ‘Lu cardillo’.

Gramophone Magazine
Ian Bostridge applies his lieder-singer intelligence to these operatic snapshots, for which his familiar expressive wail has an effective place.

Opera
In sum, Bostridge’s highly musical and intelligent approach ensures the recital is excellent publicity for that neglected species, the Baroque tenor.
