Alice Borciani - Insegnatemi a morire (2023) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

The selection of the cantatas presented on this CD goes back to the critical edition that Alice Borciani created for the Istituto Italiano per la Storia della Musica under the direction of the musicologist Luigi Collarile. The volume brings together the twelve cantatas by Antonio Cesti based on texts by the poet Giovanni Filippo Apolloni, a friend and compatriot of the composer.

The ensemble Il Zabaione musicale borrows its name from a collection of music by Adriano Banchieri, published in Milan in 1604. This ensemble specializing in early music was founded in 2010 by Alice Borciani (Italy), Elam Rotem (Israel) and Ryosuke Sakamoto (Japan), who met while studying at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis. The interest for early music and especially the repertoire of the Italian Early Baroque led to various concerts in Italy and Switzerland. Musicological research plays a fundamental role in the work of the ensemble, the main goals of which include the rediscovery of unexplored musical repertoire and work with original sources.
