“Aroma di Roma” with Sandrine Piau and Les Talens Lyriques
By candlelight in St Georgen Church, as part of the Bayreuth Baroque Festival, Sandrine Piau, Christophe Rousset and Les Talens Lyriques explore the secular passions of Baroque Rome. From Handel to Domenico Scarlatti and Montéclair, three heroines — Agrippina, Dido and Lucretia — give voice to betrayed love, fury and despair in cantatas where drama emerges without scenery or staging.
