About

After attracting attention at the French "Victoires de la Musique Classique" Awards in 2012, the contralto and conductor Nathalie Stutzmann is back with her Orfeo 55 ensemble, this time singing and conducting her 'Cantate Imaginaire' (Imaginary Cantata).

For her new album, Nathalie Stutzmann has imagined an "ideal" cantata based on the most beautiful music composed by Johann Sebastian Bach: her imaginary cantata includes vocal arias, of course, but also instrumental pieces and even chorales.

From Bach's immense, magnificent repertoire, Nathalie Stutzmann wanted to "pick a bouquet of its most beautiful flowers". Arias of gallantry or tenderness, anger, love, fear or despair... every register of expression comes together in Nathalie Stutzmann's "Cantate imaginaire", giving birth to an entirely new work within an album constructed in a single, continuous breath.

An emotional gem.
