Soprano Rowan Pierce joins Florilegium and Ashley Solomon in Tra le fiamme – a new recording of secular cantatas by G. F. Handel and J. S. Bach. Tra le fiamme is one of Handel’s Italian style cantatas, combining vocal virtuosity with deep emotional expressivity. Bach’s cantata Ich bin in mir vergnugt is an elegant example of one of his secular cantatas. This cantata stands out for it’s reflective exploration of themes of inner peace, contentment, and stoic philosophy – qualities that reflect Bach’s interest in moral and philosophical themes outside of his sacred music. Also included here is the final virtuosic Alleluia from Vivaldi’s motet In furore iustissimae irae together with instrumental concertos by Vivaldi and Handel.
