Dolce duello - Arie barocche per voce e violoncello

Don’t be fooled. Under the soppy patina of the photo, under their floral plaits and their childlike air hides one of the most prestigious duos of the moment. Cecilia Bartoli and Sol Gabetta are both admired in their respective domains: the sensual and flamboyant voice of the mezzo is only equalled by the cellist’s perfect line and the fullness of the sound she creates. In addition to offering an outstanding musical alchemy, this duo is the sign of a great artistic generosity, just like those enthusiastic musicians whose performances always end in general exultation. To celebrate the release of their new album entitled Dolce Duello: La Voce e il Violoncelle, the two divas have concocted a deliciously sparkling cocktail of arias from Neapolitan Baroque opera. One is never enough!
