福斯蒂娜·博尔多尼Faustina Bordoni (30 March 1697 – 4 November 1781) was an Italian mezzo-soprano.
Faustina Bordoni was one of the best-known Italian prima donnas of the 18th century. Faustina (in England she was always just "Faustina") already had a European reputation when Handel brought her to London in 1726, where she sang in the first runs of his "Alessandro", "Admeto", "Riccardo Primo", "Siroe", and "Tolomeo", as well as revivals of "Floridante", "Radamisto" and "Ottone". She left to marry a then even more famous composer, Hasse, and toured Europe with him for thirty years, until she was well into her 60s. She died aged 84 in 1781.
罗伯塔·因弗妮吉Roberta started out on her career with a strong musical preparation already in her background; this included playing the double-bass and performing in different music genres, and a considerable experience of choral performances. At the same time, she has always been cultivating a wide interest for all the elements of knowledge around a musical score, including literature, history, theory, methods, and so on. Recently she has become a teacher of historical singing methods at the same Naples conservatory where Antonio Florio holds the chair in Baroque music and singing practice with orchestra.
Her enchanting voice has the ability and the flexibility to adapt without any trouble to different kinds of repertoire and style across three centuries. I remember her outstanding roles from Monteverdi or Provenzale as well as in early Romantic music. However, in the middle of this repertoire sweep you can insert any composer in whose music she excels, composers as different as Scarlatti, Purcell, Lully, Handel or Paisiello. Roberta really is the “Nuova Sirena” (as Faustina Bordoni was called in Venice) of our modern times.
With I Viaggi di Faustina Glossa is launching a new collection focusing on famous Italian singers from the 17th and 18th centuries, whose travels bear witness to the intense level of artistic activity then taking place in the major cities of Europe. Faustina Bordoni, the brilliant pa with whom we begin this series pursued her career mainly in Naples (the principal focus of this CD) and Venice, but also in cities such as Bologna, Parma, Dresden and London. These were cities hosting – with great success – operas by Johann Adolph Hasse (Bordoni’s husband), Nicola Popora, Leonardo Vinci, Francesco Mancini and Domenico Sarro; most of these composers are represented on this first selection of wonderful arias.
The artist chosen to reincarnate Faustina Bordoni has been the singer considered by many to be the leading soprano in Baroque music today: Roberta Invernizzi. In a repertory fitting her like a glove, Invernizzi displays all her renowned sensitivity and virtuosity along with a sense of mutual musical understanding – which is second bar none – with Antonio Florio and I Turchini. This is Roberta Invernizzi’s second release on the label as the main protagonist, the first being her outstanding and very highly-appreciated album of Vivaldi arias.
Devised by the scholar Dinko Fabris and the conductor Antonio Florio, with further musicological advice coming from Juan José Carreras and Giulia Veneziano, this new collection also gives a central importance to the texts and to the iconography which provide each recording with their context; in this way endeavouring to create the most complete and stimulating vision possible of the conditions which were surrounding these inimitable artists.
