Dramma furioso
A fiery firework display of arias about barbaric betrayals and glowing love, garnished with vocal wizardry, staged by mezzo-soprano Lucia Cirillo. Conductor Diego Fasolis compiled this vital Baroque program of concerti and opera arias, including a thrilling aria and the pulsating 8th Symphony by Beethoven. Fasolis, known as Harnoncourt's "musical estate administrator," stepped in for the Beethoven tour in 2016. The concert lasts approximately 125 minutes including intermission.
