Our Take

Ensemble Arava's latest offering, "The Habsburg Garden of Eden," is a whimsical journey through the rich tapestry of Baroque music. Led by the talented Einat Aronstein, Sophie Wedell, Nora Matthies, and Avinoam Shalev, this album brings together compositions by Caldara, Bonporti, Handel, Biber, Ziani, and Muffatin for a truly eclectic listening experience.

The album opens with Caldara's "Dixit Dominus," a lively and energetic piece that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Aronstein's deft touch on the violin is a highlight throughout, adding a sense of whimsy and flair to each track.

One of the standout tracks is Handel's "Il trionfo del tempo e del disinganno," where Aronstein's emotive playing shines, capturing the essence of Handel's intricate compositions. Wedell's impeccable skills on the cello add depth and richness to each piece, creating a lush and vibrant sound.

The ensemble's interpretation of Biber's "Mystery Sonatas" is hauntingly beautiful, with Matthies' ethereal voice soaring over Shalev's intricate harpsichord accompaniment. The album closes with a rousing rendition of Muffatin's "Alma Redemptoris Mater," leaving listeners in a state of awe and wonder.

Overall, "The Habsburg Garden of Eden" is a delightful and enchanting listen that showcases Ensemble Arava's exceptional musicianship and deep appreciation for Baroque music. Don't miss out on this gem of an album!
