Written for a simple ensemble of voices and basso continuo, it was performed in private settings among the nobility. The Venetian composer Benedetto Marcello (1686–1737) was one of the most prolific composers in this genre, having composed approximately 300 cantatas between 1710 and 1720. Of these, more than 20 were cantatas for bass. These works, which sought a perfect harmony between poetry and music, are said to have influenced later great composers such as Rossini, Bizet, Verdi, and Chopin; Verdi, in particular, held Marcello’s recitatives in high regard. Complex emotions—such as rejection, sorrow, jealousy, hope, and lament—are expressed through singing supported by superb vocal writing and vivid harmonies. This is an album that evokes a truly human experience.\nKing International\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Udite, amanti SF A356~Recitative: Udite amanti\u003cbr\u003e2.Udite, amanti SF A356~Aria (Adagio): Pena piu cruda e ria\u003cbr\u003e3.Udite, amanti SF A356~Recitative: Credei che il mio sincero\u003cbr\u003e4.Udite, amanti SF A356~Aria (Tempo giusto): Si disciolga quell'empia catena\u003cbr\u003e5.Che io viva in tante pene SF A55~Recitative: Che io viva in tante pene\u003cbr\u003e6.Che io viva in tante pene SF A55~Aria (Sostenuto adagio): Basta dir\u003cbr\u003e7.Che io viva in tante pene SF A55~Recitative: E ver che, accesa d'amoroso foco\u003cbr\u003e8.Che io viva in tante pene SF A55~Aria: Se a far pago\u003cbr\u003e9.Quanta pieta mi fate SF A278~Recitative: Quanta pieta mi fate\u003cbr\u003e10.Quanta pieta mi fate SF A278~Aria (Andante): Privo allor delle ruggiade\u003cbr\u003e11.Quanta pieta mi fate SF A278~Recitative: Ma quanto, o dio! di voi\u003cbr\u003e12.Quanta pieta mi fate SF A278~Aria (Lento): Piangete al pianto mio\u003cbr\u003e13.Lungi, speranze SF A182~Recitative: Lungi, speranze\u003cbr\u003e14.Lungi, speranze SF A182~Aria (Andante): Nel mio cor\u003cbr\u003e15.Lungi, speranze SF A182~Recitative: Giuro, giuro quell'empia\u003cbr\u003e16.Lungi, speranze SF A182~Aria (Largo): Sento gia nel mezzo al mio core\u003cbr\u003e17.Poiche fato inumano SF A252~Recitative: Poiche fato inumano\u003cbr\u003e18.Poiche fato inumano SF A252~Aria (Adagio): Luci belle\u003cbr\u003e19.Poiche fato inumano SF A252~Recitative: Questa che mi divide\u003cbr\u003e20.Poiche fato inumano SF A252~Aria (Allegro): Come scoglio che l'onda disprezza\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Challenge Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374656741665,"sku":"608917289428","price":2871.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/608917289428.jpg?v=1787632220","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/608917289428","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
