Beethoven Ludwig Van Haydn Josep - Beethoven, Haydn & Mozart: La Passi

Facts Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin returns to Pentatone together with soprano Christina Landshamer, presenting La Passione, a collection of dazzling concert arias on love, longing and loss by Mozart, Beethoven and Haydn, paired with the latter's "La Passione" Symphony. Ranging from pastoral simplicity to exuberant outrage, the program offers some of the finest vocal writing around 1800, including some of Beethoven's rare and little-known excursions to Italian bravura opera, as well as one of the most dramatic and expressive symphonies of the eighteenth-century. The Akademie für Alte Musik is generally seen as one of the best period-instruments ensembles of today, and has a substantial Pentatone discography, including CANTATA with Bejun Mehta (2018), Handel's Concerti grossi op. 6 (released in 2019 and 2020). Telemann's Miriways (2020), Handel's Messiah (2020) and Haydn's L'isola disabitata (2021). Christina Landshamer featured as Marzelline on Beethoven's Fidelio (2021).
