Description

ENSEMBLE IL CARAVAGGIO Apolline RAÏ-WESTPHAL soprano Ambroisine BRÉ mezzo-soprano Mathias VIDAL haute-contre Jordan MOUAISSIA tenor Guilhem WORMS bass 8 instrumentalists including Camille DELAFORGE direction and organ   Henry PURCELL (1659–1695) Pavane – Chaconne - In Guilty night - Passacaille Giovanni Battista FERRANDINI (1709–1791) Il pianto di Maria Marc-Antoine CHARPENTIER (1643–1704) Sinfonia, Elévation pour la Paix Le reniement de Saint Pierre Henry PURCELL When Orpheus sang   A reflection of vibrant musical Europe, the biblical story inspired works in which eloquence is expressed with power and contrast. Purcell stands out with his The Witch of Endor, Charpentier with his masterpiece Le reniement de Saint-Pierre, and Italy reveals a gem: Ferrandini’s Il Pianto di Maria recently brought to light by Camille Delaforge. After their success in 2023, it is a pleasure for La Folia to welcome back Il Caravaggio and its spiritual programme promising profound emotion.
