Maria Cristina Kiehr ( soprano)

Concerto Soave, Jean-Marc Aymes

The theme of the deploration represents one of the keystones of the Italian baroque revolution in the first half of the 17th century. These lamenti constituted the ideal framework for putting into practice the latest discoveries in expressive solo singing. Freed from the subtleties of counterpoint, it was now able to communicate the emotion expressed in the words directly to the listener. In this respect sacred music was not far behind and it is easy to understand why the plaints of Mary Magdalene at the foot of the Cross were so abundant, especially in Rome where religious music had always occupied a more important position than elsewhere. The solo motets of Rossi, Agneletti, Mazzocchi and Frescobaldi bear dazzling witness to this specifically Roman musical activity.

Frescobaldi:

Aria detta Balletto pour clavecin

Monteverdi:

Fugge 'l verno de' dolori

Come farò cuor mio quando mi parto

Lidia spina del mio core

Damigella tutta bella

Quel sguardo sdegnosetto

Più lieto il guardo

Et è pur dunque vero

Sì dolce è'l tormento

Clori amorosa

Ecco di dolci raggi

Lo che'armato sin hor

Eri già tutta mia

Maledetto sia l'aspetto

Quando sperai

Quando l'Alba in Oriente

Se i languidi miei sguardi

Lettera amorosa

Ohimè ch'io cado

De la bellezza le dovute lodi
