Stratospheric voices, twirling arias: this program, dedicated to virtuosity, invites us to a vocal high-flying act!

The two singers in this program represent the avant-garde of a new generation of Baroque singers. Both revealed by William Christie and his "Jardin des Voix" academy, they also share a spectacular range, whose triumphant high notes, particularly prized in the Baroque era, inspired composers to write some of their most brilliant works.

By bringing together these two champions of vocal flexibility, William Christie offers an explosion of virtuosity in a tailor-made program that brings together some of the most dazzling arias of Italian Baroque music.
