MARIE LYS (Soprano), ANICIO ZORZI GIUSTINIANI (Tenor) · CD Vivaldi

Naïve released Volume 70 of the Vivaldi Edition which revives the Serenata a tre RV 690 led with brio by Andrea Buccarella and his Abchordis Ensemble and featuring ALLEGORICA Artists Marie Lys (Eurilla) and Anicio Zorzi Giustiniani (Alcindo).
In spite of the warning from her friend Nice, the nymph Eurilla is in love with the shepherd Alcindo, and, to punish him for his lack of enthusiasm, tries to trick him into loving her. The story is simple, the trio of characters borrowed from Arcadia and the playful tone, as befits this type of open-air cantata composed for political, dynastic or private celebrations. The Serenata a tre RV 690, under the Red Priest’s pen, nevertheless possesses all the qualities of an exquisitely polished miniature opera that is also light-hearted.
