‘Il Giardino D’Amore’ with Nuria Rial

“The evening began with the cantata ‘Quella pace gradita’ by Alessandro Scarlatti, in which all five performers were immediately able to showcase their enormous qualities, which kept the audience enthralled throughout the concert: what a gentle beginning with the baroque instruments! What a first luminous soprano part by Nuria Rial and a violinist who helped shape it, Julia Schröder! How lively and cheerful the flute interjections by Maurice Steger and how sensitive and intense the accompanying support of the harpsichordist Sebastian Wienand and the cellist Christoph Dangel! It was the showcase for all subsequent pieces.” (Simmentalzeitung, September 5th 2024)
