9th edition of the Misteria Paschalia Festival (2-9 April 2012)

This year’s festival is focused on great vocal and instrumental works. On 6 April, Marc Minkowski and Les Musiciens du Louvre-Grenoble will perform St. Matthew Passion, bringing to the close a three-year-long cycle of performances of Bach’s works.

This year’s festival programme also includes three oratorios. The first – La Fenice sul rogo, ovvero la morte di S. Giuseppe by Pergolesi – will be presented during the opening concert by Fabio Biondi with the Europa Galante ensemble and soloists including Roberta Invernizzi. On 3 April, Vivaldi’s Juditha Triumphans will resound, performed by Josè Maria Lo Monaco in the title role and Delphine Galou as Holofernes, with Accademia Bizantina and the conductor Ottavio Dantone. This Old Testament tale will be heard again on 5 April in a work written by Alessandro Scarlatti. The main parts in his oratorio La Giuditta will be performed by Roberta Mameli and Marta Fumagalli, accompanied by the La Venexiana orchestra under the baton of Claudio Cavina.

Presentation of the monumental work Dinastia Borgia, conducted by Jordi Savall, will be a major event. The tale of the marriage between the Church and the authorities during the Renaissance, performed by Hespèrion XXI and La Capella Reial de Catalunya, will resound on 4 April at St. Catherine's Church. This year’s festival will feature a debut concert by Ensemble Peregrina, conducted by Agnieszka Budzińska-Bennett. The artist works in a particularly difficult field of mediaeval vocal music. The festival will close with Arie e concerti by Handel and Vivaldi; the concerts will feature singers Simone Kermes (Venice Baroque Orchestra, conducted by Andrea Marcon) and Julia Lezhneva (Ensemble Matheus, conducted by Jean-Christophe Spinosi).

Concerts will be recorded and transmitted by the Polish Radio Programme 2
