Something about the eternal city ignited the most productive period of his entire career: there Handel worked with some of the greatest musicians of the age and enjoyed the favours of major patrons of the arts. There he also witnessed the clerical aristocracy's sensual enjoyment of those very luxuries, excesses, and trappings of beauty that they professed to deny in their sermons. In Handel in Rome, Dunedin Consort and it's director John Butt set out to convey Handel's response to this stimulating and somewhat paradoxical environment with three Italian cantatas. Winner of the Rising Talent award at the 2022 International Opera Awards, Nardus Williams is the star soprano.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.2 Ero e Leandro 'Qual ti riveggio, oh Dio', HWV 150~Aria: Empio mare, onde crudeli \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Tra le fiamme, HWV 170~Aria: Tra le fiamme tu scherzi per gioco \u003cbr\u003e1.18 Armida abbandonata, HWV 105~Accompagnato: O voi, dell' incostante\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Nardus Williams","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41144113561671,"sku":"44567002","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/4365518-3225897_dc69e308-f353-4ba4-9479-5678833475c7.jpg?v=1726312899","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/handel-williams-butt-handel-in-rome","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
