Lea Desandre sings Pallavicino: L’Antiope: “Sdegni, furori barbari“

In a world premiere recording, Lea Desandre sings “Sdegni, furori barbari“, an aria of Celinda from Pallavicino’s 1690 opera L’Antiope, with Thomas Dunford and the ensemble Jupiter. Discover more on her album Amazone: The program of the album draws inspiration from the great female warriors of myth, viewed through the lens of Baroque composers. Mezzo-soprano Lea Desandre explores the fascinating ways that composers treat their Amazonian characters, particularly interesting figures in that they embody a “male/female“ duality. The recordings feature three special guests: Cecilia Bartoli and Véronique Gens appear in separate duets with Lea, and William Christie features on harpsichord in a piece by Couperin.
