CD Reviews

An absolute gem

04/25/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Along with Gerard Lesne's recording of Bononcini cantatas on Virgin (now reissued as librettoless budget double), this is one of the best monuments to the older of the Bononcini brothers. The recording dates from 1988 and Cristina Miatello is on typically fine form.The only niggle (as always with Tactus) is the lack of English translations with the Italian texts, but you can always lie back and enjoy the beauty of Ms. Miatello's warbling. Tactus are to be congratulated for digging out many gems from the 17th Century... cantatas by Conti, Leo, and of course Vivaldi, among them. It's worth noting here Tactus tribute to the younger Bononcini brother - The Decapitation of John the Baptist - conducted by Sandro Volta, recorded 1999. Not everyone's taste perhaps but a reminder that all musical families mixed sacred and secular at the time."
