Marc Mauillon · Orfeo | Luciana Mancini · Euridice
La Capella Reial de Catalunya
Le Concert des Nations
Jordi Savall, direction
Jordi Savall is painting Monteverdi in the colours of the Mediterranean. The Catalan maestro has entrusted the title role of this foundational work of Western music to a remarkable baritone: the magnificent Marc Mauillon embodies Orfeo, his resonant and ductile voice in perfect unison with the conductor’s musical vision. Here, the warmth of the interpretation and the richness of the sound are supreme!
Recorded from June 30th to July 4th, 2021 at the Royal Opera of Versailles
