Orlando Furioso
© Studio Ricordi
This production of Antonio Vivaldi’s Orlando furioso in Martina Franca gave us an exact idea of what baroque opera was for 18th-century audiences: a maze of magic, love and fabulous adventures, ingenious machinery and special effects. On the musical side, Diego Fasolis created a sparkling, highly entertaining sound, directing from the harpsichord. Both singers and I Barocchisti gave a scintillating performance, full of rhythm and liveliness. Furthermore, a good number of the recitatives were cut, in order to make the opera more enjoyable for a modern audience.
