Notes
In 1516 Ludovico Ariosto published his powerful epic “Orlando furioso”, a sequence of intertwined heroic adventures. The story of the knight Orlando, driven mad by a disappointed love for the princess Angelica, serves the entire range of emotions and quickly achieved great success throughout Europe. Dozens of operas were created around Orlando and other characters from Ariosto‘s epic. Countertenor Filippo Mineccia has put together a varied programme of arias from operas by Steffani, Porpora, Vivaldi, Handel, Mele, Wagenseil and Millico around the figure of “Raging Roland“, in which he brilliantly displays all the creative facets of his voice.

**** Excellent Album
Philippe Venturini – Classica magazine (France) – September 2021
“… The countertenor Filippo Mineccia is well equipped both musically and intellectually to meet the broad demands of this repertoire. The full, vibrant timbre of this well-produced voice and eveness across its range is intrinsically appealing, The middle range is unusually strong and he is capable of projecting impressive chest notes in an aria such as Vivaldi’s ‘Nel profondo’. But he is also excellent at more sensitive moments, able to bring ‘Ah! Stige larve’ to a truly affecting conclusion… a near-exemplary recital, which is admirably accompanied by the Belgian-based New Baroque Times.”
