Six Italian Arias, vol. 2
sopano, violin & basso continuo
Full score and parts
Green, Maurice
Greenes seven chamber arias today, we would call them concert arias include a set of six that appears to have been custom-written for Faustina Bordoni, the great Venetian diva, during her visits to London in 172628, since (among other things) they all showcase her trademark note: the E in the top space of the treble clef that particularly thrilled opera-goers. The obbligato violin part for all of them was probably written for the violinist and composer Mauro DAlay, her constant companion and reputed lover. All six works are substantial and full of character and expression as well as melodiousness and contrapuntal finesse. They show a composer at the peak of his inspiration and ambition.
