Out of Lenzi’s entire compositional ouput, his 34 Lamentations for the Holy Week particularly stand out. For this recording, the first lamentation for Good Friday in 1777 and the second lamentation for Maundy Thursday in 1780 were chosen. Both share a modern style, a pathetic-sentimental expression, as well as brilliant and intricately composed vocal parts. They manifest a personal inclination towards the galant style, which is characterised by a strong sense for the word and its setting.
Mozart composed the motet Exsultate, jubilate, KV165, in Milan in January 1773 for the soprano Venanzio Rauzzini. This motet is one of Mozart’s most remarkable spiritual works. Its outstanding design has the same characteristics as the compositions of Lenzi: a brilliant euphoria that would develop into a stylistic hallmark of Mozart’s works for Milan and for Salzburg.
The Italian soprano Francesca Lombardi Mazzulli is regarded as one the most promising singers of the younger generation. She works with conductors such as Alan Curtis, Christophe Rousset, Alessandro De Marchi, Fabio Biondi, Andrea Marcon, and George Petrou.
