“

This is Magdalena Kozená s first collaboration with the acclaimed Venice Baroque Orchestra and Andrea Marcon a superlative grouping and a must-have album for every Handel fan. Following her best-selling album Lamento, Magdalena Koz ená returns to her musical home ground, the world of dramatic Baroque singing, with her first Handel arias album. Once again Koz ená has combined both well-known and lesser-known works to create a personal anthology of the most dramatic moments of love, hatred, hope, and desperation. The program includes arias from Rinaldo, Giulio Cesare, Alcina, and Joshua, among others. Handel s complex characters and passionate writing are the perfect vehicles for Koz ená s unique talent for delivering even the most elaborate emotions through the sheer beauty of her singing. The voice that goes straight to the heart (The Sunday Times) takes listeners on an emotional odyssey.
