Berenice, che fai... ou Bérénice dans tous ses états. L’héroïne de Métastase, en proie à un dilemme cornélien, a inspiré les grands noms du répertoire lyrique que sont Hasse, Haydn, Mozart ainsi qu’une compositrice encore méconnue aujourd’hui, Marianna Martinez, contemporaine et même voisine de certains d’entre eux. Pour interpréter ce personnage haut en couleurs, trois chanteuses et un orchestre : la mezzo Léa Desandre, récompensée aux Victoires de la musique en 2017, les sopranos Natalie Perez et Chantal Santon-Jeffery et l’impétueux chef David Stern à la tête de son ensemble sur instruments d’époque, Opera Fuoco.
Véritables comédiens, ces musiciens restituent toute la charge théâtrale de ces partitions, sans sacrifier la dimension sensible et fragile du personnage. Une complexité émotionnelle, entre folie jubilatoire et pages plus tragiques, que l’on retrouve dans la Sinfonia de Hasse, extrait de son opéra Antigono et dont Opera Fuoco nous livre une version pleine de panache.

Berenice, que fai… Or frantic Berenice. Metastasio’s heroin, facing a dilemma of love versus duty, inspired the great operatic composers such as Hasse, Haydn, Mozart such as one of their female peers, still unknown today, Marianna Martinez, contemporary and even neighboring some of them.
To interpret this colorful character, three singers and an orchestra: the mezzo Léa Desandre, rewarded at the Victoires de la Musique in 2017, the sopranos Natalie Perez and Chantal Santon-Jeffery, and the impetuous conductor David Stern at the head of his period instruments-ensemble, Opera Fuoco.
True actors, these musicians restore the theatrical dimension of these scores without sacrificing the sensitive and fragile aspect of the character. An emotional complexity, between exhilarating madness and more tragic pages, that we find in Hasse’s Sinfonia, from his opera Antigono and of which Opera Fuoco gives us a full version of panache.
