First Time Ever on Vinyl!

There is a frisson of surprise from the start: the Arnold Schoenberg Choir frolics in as the nymphs and shepherds from Dorilla in Tempe, en-couraging Bartoli to celebrate a 'Spring' which has a decided fragrance of deja vu. And the chilliest of the Four Seasons appears further into the recital as 'Gelido in ogni vena' from Farnace, revealing Bartoli's voice numbed with grief, gliding over those icy orchestral chords.

There is also a degree of bewilderment. Coarse-voiced period brass instruments herald Bartoli's riding of some particularly squally waves as tempest racks land and heart in 'Dopo un'orrida procella' from Griselda. The aria unleashes Bartoli's famous breathy, whispered coloratura, her flaming top register, and an enclosed, hollow chest-voice which seems to belong to neither of the other two. Bartoli tackles her discoveries with infectious glee, enjoying too the beguiling instrumental palette of Il Giardino Armonico, whose pair of flageolets, duetting over muted violins and pizzicato violas and cellos, calm the torments of love in 'Di due rai'. (Gramophone)
