La Nuova Musica: Dixit Dominus

Wir begleiteten den britischen Dirigenten David Bates und sein Ensemble La Nuova Musica bei ihrer Einspielung zu Händels “Dixit Dominus” in den Air Studios in London.

David Bates leads La Nuova Musica in a pair of contrasting settings of Psalm 109. Handel’s masterful and ambitious HWV 282 was penned in 1707 during a youthful visit to Italy. Vivaldi’s vivid and economical RV 807 (his third “Dixit Dominus”) was long mistakenly attributed to Baldassare Galuppi; it probably dates from the early 1730s. Rounding out the programme is Vivaldi’s dazzling motet for solo voice, “In furore iustissimae irae,” featuring soprano Lucy Crowe.
