Maria Bengtsson, Orchestra De Chambre De Lausanne, Bertrand De Billy
Description
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed about twenty five operas – and with them often asked too much of his contemporaries. While his audiences expected to find familiar patterns and types and were looking for good entertainment, his subtly elaborated individual roles require complete listening attention.
In her aria recitals Maria Bengtsson brings out the multifaceted nature of his characters – a dimension also illustrated by the most highly demanding orchestral part.
The Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne led by the conductor Bertrand de Billy once again proves to be a magnificent performance partner.
As well as Idomeneo and the Magic Flute, the Swedish soprano has selected marvelous scenes from Don Giovanni, The Marriage of Figaro, and Così fan tutte. It is especially in the two Fiordiligi numbers that she displays all the many sides of her lyric voice.
