Oeuvre: Rodelinda, HWV 19: Ritorna, o caro e dolce mio tesoro

Accompagnée par un Concerto Köln en grande forme, la soprano proposait un habile jeu de miroirs où des héroïnes emblématiques de l'opéra baroque italien apparaissaient sous des jours différents selon les compositeurs.

The sopranista voice type is rare although not unknown, but there are very few who are an unmitigated joy to listen to: Samuel Mariño is one of those rarities. 

In an operatic head-to-head, Handel would emerge triumphant for most Baroque buffs, yet Milanese soprano Roberta Invernizzi presented an excellent case for the Red Priest in a dazzling Wigmore Hall recital with La Risonanza.
