At a time when opera was often denigrated by the Papacy, Stradella’s cantatas and serenatas proved enormously successful, their form housing a succession of recitatives, arias and instrumental pieces. The theme is the pain of love, to which Stradella responds with a limitless variety of expression and virtuosity, whether in the soprano echo effects of Arsi già di una fiamma, the near-operatic breadth of Or ch’alla dea notturna or the structural perfection of Infinite son le pene.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dynamic","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":49706117038360,"sku":"8007144078935","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/3931130-2673379.jpg?v=1777555402","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/alessandro-stradella-cantatas-serenatas-vol-1","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
