Our Take

Album Review: LE CONCERT DES NATIONS / JORDI SAVALL Alcione - Tragedie Lyrique (1706)

When it comes to baroque opera, one man stands above the rest like a giant harpsichord-playing colossus. And that man is Jordi Savall. This guy is like the Elon Musk of baroque music, pushing boundaries and flipping the script on what we thought we knew about 18th-century French opera.

On "Alcione - Tragedie Lyrique," Savall and his ensemble, Le Concert des Nations, bring the dramatic tale of love, loss, and sea monsters to life in a way that only they can. From the haunting overture to the triumphant finale, this album is a rollercoaster of emotions that will leave you breathless.

Savall's prowess as a conductor is on full display here, as he effortlessly weaves together intricate melodies and complex harmonies with the precision of a Swiss watchmaker. The result is a sound that is both grandiose and intimate, transporting the listener to a time and place where gods and mortals mingled freely.

With its lush orchestration and stunning vocal performances, "Alcione - Tragedie Lyrique" is a true tour de force that will appeal to both die-hard opera fans and casual listeners alike. So grab your powdered wig and your fanciest frock coat, because Savall and his crew are about to take you on a musical journey that you won't soon forget.
