Stabat Mater, Nisi Dominus

Stabat Mater, Nisi Dominus Antonio Vivaldi Vivaldi served by one of his most brilliant servants, the counter-tenor Philippe Jaroussky.

Philippe Jaroussky | counter-tenorEnsemble Artaserse Philippe Jaroussky & his Ensemble Artaserse have chosen to change the programme, offering you an evening entitled Il mio Vivaldi, while keeping the Stabat Mater and the Nisi Dominus initially planned.

You will hear the following works: Concerto for strings RV 118 (largo) Stabar Mater RV 621 Concerto for strings “Madrigalesco” RV 129 Nisi Dominus RV 608 Vivaldi Sinfonia, first movement from L’Olimpiade RV 725 “Mentre dormi”, aria of Licida, “Conquesto ferro” and “Gemo in un punto e fremo”, extracts from L’Olimpiade RV 725 Concerto for strings and basso continuo RV 114 “Gelido in ogni vena”, aria from Farnace RV 711 “Farà la mia spada”, aria from Il Tigrane RV 740 In a few words: a new Vivaldian challenge for Philippe Jaroussky, who in a single evening performs two of the most famous sacred pieces by the “Red Priest” as well as several arias from operas, with his ensemble Artaserse.

An evening as they should be on avenue Montaigne, as brilliant as it is in good company. Philippe will return to the Théâtre and its pit next March to perform Handel, his other favourite composer, on the occasion of the new stage production of Rinaldo.
