Venice Baroque Orchestra
Conductor: Andrea Marcon
Julia Lezhneva needs no introduction to enthusiasts of early music – over the past few years, the Hungarian public has had several opportunities to marvel at her crystal-clear, silky voice, magnificent coloratura and richly emotional expressiveness. The fairy tale-like career of the Russian soprano started just ten years ago, in 2010, when Kiri Te Kanawa invited her to appear and she took a sensational win in the Royal Albert Hall in London at the Classical Brit Awards. This time, the singer – who is in her early thirties – arrives at the Liszt Academy with Venice Baroque Orchestra, masters of the 17-18th century repertoire. They are conducted by Andrea Marcon, the founding harpsichordist-musicologist. The core of the programme is made up of arias by Vivaldi, Graun and Händel, and baroque concertos in a glorious production featuring instrumental soloists of the ensemble.
