In his exploration of the vocal music of Mozart and his contemporaries, soprano Bruno de Sá evokes Mille affetti – a thousand emotions – and adds six world premiere recordings to the catalogue: arias by Luigi Cherubini, Luigi Caruso, Felice Alessandrini, Franz Seydelmann, Johann Friedrich Reichardt, and Niccolo` Antonio Zingarelli. Joining him for this adventurous programme of sacred and secular repertoire are the Wroclaw Baroque Orchestra, organist Marcin Szelest, the NFM Choir and conductor Jaroslaw Thiel. For his debut Erato album, Roma Travestita, Bruno de Sá focused on Baroque repertoire, causing BBC Music Magazine to marvel at his “”immaculate legato, gift for scintillating decoration, dramatic octave drops and stratospheric ascents above the stave.”” Now he applies those talents to the Classical era. “”This seemed like the moment to explore different musical possibilities,”” he says, “”and also a period that really speaks to me – emotionally, musically and technically. There are some very virtuosic things here, but I”ve never struggled with them because they are such a joy to sing. I hope that people feel and hear that.”” Repertoire features: W.A. Mozart: Exsultate Jubilate, Franz Seydelmann: excerpts from Il Turco in Italia, Johann Friedrich Reichardt: excerpts from Andromeda, Niccolò Antonio Zingarelli: Salve, Regina, and more (repertoire selection by Yannis François).
