“Alas! Such pain! Oimè!” Pain and suffering on the operatic stage was already causing a higher rate of tear-soaked handkerchiefs among opera-goers during the Baroque. As part of the Movimentos series, the wonderful mezzo-soprano Mareike Morr brings all the apprehensive and furious heroines and heroes back to life on her debut Genuin CD. Together with the roiling, frothing and murmuring tones of the Hannoversche Hofkapelle she performs arias by Handel and Vivaldi, bewails Eurydice as Gluck’s Orpheus and to heart-rending effect breathes her last as Purcell’s Dido. Beauty to cry over.
"Above all, though, she fascinates with the astonishing maturity of her interpretation."
