PRJCT Amsterdam and it's artistic director Maarten Engeltjes present two of the greatest vocal works of the baroque era: Pergolesi's Stabat Mater and Vivaldi's Nisi Dominus. While Vivaldi's virtuosic piece contemplates the helplessness of people when God does not support their efforts, Pergolesi's portrait of the weeping Mary at the Cross embodies what the "nameless" parents of a deceased child go through. In the Stabat Mater, Engeltjes's counter-tenor blends together seamlessly and soothingly with Shira Patchornik's soprano voice, resulting in an interpretation that is both profound and deeply relatable.PRJCT Amsterdam is a young, innovative baroque ensemble centred around counter-tenor Maarten Engeltjes, and founded in 2017. Engeltjes is one of the most sought-after counter-tenors of today, working with several of the most esteemed early music groups and conductors. After having won multiple major baroque competitions, soprano Shira Patchornik is quickly establishing herself as an important singer on the opera and concert stage. All artists make their Pentatone debut.
