Fotografia de David Ruano gentilesa de Departament de Premsa del Gran Teatre del Liceu LA PRÈVIA Si Jordi Savall i Calixto Bieito eren com aigua i oli, pot ser que el mestre igualadí hagués hagut de renunciar a dirigir una magnífica producció amb la qual ell se sentia incòmode. L’aposta era arriscada, d’acord, però també valenta i no crec en…

I’ve been reading about opera, oratorio, and cantata lately…got any cantatas you’d recommend? 👀😁

hey! so here’s the thing: cantatas have actually been one of my biggest vocal music blind spots, so i haven’t explored the genre nearly as much as i probably should have. that being said:

the most classic cantatas are a) bach’s cantatas and b) orff’s carmina burana.

there is a delightful bach secular cantata called the coffee cantata. i also recommend some of the more famous bach cantatas such as BWV 147 (featuring “jesu, joy of man’s desiring”) and BWV 208 (featuring “sheep may safely graze”).

someone apparently went to the trouble of making a ratings list of ALL the bach cantatas.

carmina burana was designed for stage performance and i highly recommend this film version. for audio recordings my top two picks are either the audio recording of that film (conducted by kurt eichhorn) or the one conducted by eugen jochum.

the other big thing i have to say about cantatas is that i adore handel’s italian cantatas. two delightful albums in my spotify library:

this one with magdalena kožená

and this one with sabine devieilhe and léa desandre

peeps who know more about cantatas than me please feel free to add!

MAGDALENA KOŽENÁ EN EL TEATRO COLÓN

I'm losing my mind a little over here

Magdalena Kožená looking, uh... very Elina as Octavian and Camilla Nylund-Saris as The Marschallin in Strauss’ Der Rosenkavalier, Met 2019

The Glyndebourne Hippolyte et Aricie (or “Fridge Rameau” as I fondly call it) is so near to my heart that the Staatsoper Unter den Linden’s brainy new production is a tough sell to me. (Apparently it has something to do with “post-humanism and the Anthropocene”? And mirrors and lasers.) So I don’t know that I will watch the livestream this Saturday—which seems to be geoblocked, by the way. But folks should know about it; the music sounds fantastic in this preview clip.

Forbidden is the sight of Eurydice until you are beyond the caves of the Styx! And of this great prohibition you must not tell her! Otherwise, you lose her again, and for ever.
