Philippe Jaroussky sings: Vivaldi: Cessate, omai cessate, RV 684: I. "Cessate, omai cessate"

Experience the powerful opening movement and recitative of Antonio Vivaldi's searing solo cantata, Cessate, omai cessate (RV 684), performed by the incomparable countertenor Philippe Jaroussky. https://w.lnk.to/pjgel This piece is a dramatic Baroque lament, expressing the tormented despair of a heart afflicted by cruel, tyrannical memories of unrequited love. Jaroussky's signature vocal purity and emotional intelligence capture the full intensity of this dramatic confrontation between the suffering soul and its painful past. This movement, marked Largo e sciolto, immediately draws the listener into the world of intense Baroque vocal emotion. __________ Warner Classics ► Website: http://www.warnerclassics.com Subscribe to our: ►Youtube - https://w.lnk.to/subscribeID ►Newsletter - https://w.lnk.to/newssubID Follow us on: ► Facebook: http://www.fb.com/WarnerClassicsErato ► Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/warner_classics ► Twitter: http://twitter.com/WarnerClassics ► YouTube: https://.www.youtube.com/@WarnerClassics Listen to us on: ► Spotify: http://open.spotify.com/user/warnerclassics ► Apple Music: http://itunes.apple.com/curator/warner-classics/1153741571 ► Deezer https://www.deezer.com/profile/321050935 Warner Classics is the home of classical music, featuring iconic high audio quality recordings from the greatest classical legends, opera stars and orchestras of the last century.
