Europa Galante / Ian Bostridge / Fabio Bondi
Monteverdi / Castello / D’India
Als die Musik die Lautmalerei entdeckte
Ein Ritterkampf, bellende Hunde, streitende Katzen und ein scheinbarer Organist, der sich in Improvisationen verliert: Im 17. Jahrhundert, an der Schwelle von der Renaissance zum Barock, entdeckten Komponisten wie Claudio Monteverdi oder Carlo Farina musikalische Effekte und neue Spieltechniken für sich. Das Ensemble Europa Galante, »temperamentvoll und elegant« (Gramophone), ist wie geschaffen für diese Musik. Ian Bostridge, »eine der faszinierendsten Sängerpersönlichkeiten unserer Zeit« (SWR Kultur), bereichert den Abend um seine ausdrucksstarke Stimme.
Eigentlich fühlt sich Ian Bostridge besonders im Liedgesang zu Hause, doch schon 2022 brachte er ein hochgelobtes Album mit Barockarien heraus. »Bei Tenor und Oper denken alle an hohe, laute Töne. Aber so singe ich nicht, das kann ich gar nicht! Barockarien sind viel näher am Liedgesang als die spätere Oper und das schätze ich sehr. Billie Holiday hatte keine Opernstimme, aber sie ist eine der besten Sängerinnen des 20. Jahrhunderts – Barockarien sind mehr wie Billie Holiday als wie Puccini.«
»Lamento« ist ein Programm, dass die Affekte, den barocken Gefühlsausdruck, in den Mittelpunkt stellt. Ob der titelgebende Klagegesang, die tragische Geschichte vom Kreuzritter Tancredi und der Sarazenenkriegerin Clorinda oder das heitere, humorvolle Capriccio von Carlo Farina – die Musik geht unmittelbar ins Herz.
