Emőke Baráth, Philippe Jaroussky, Artaserse – Handel: Radamisto: “Qual nave smarrita tra’ sirti“

Through the carefully crafted program of her album Dualità, soprano Emőke Baráth explores the legacies left behind by 18th-century singers who crossed or bent the lines of gender on stage – with Philippe Jaroussky conducting his Ensemble Artaserse. Discover here: The title role of Radamisto, son of Farasmane, was premiered in 1720 by Margherita Durastante, a prima donna of Handel’s London opera company. Other prime donne that this album alludes to are Margherita Chimenti (who specialised in male roles), Francesca Cuzzoni, and Anna Maria Strada del Pò.
