About the Event
An exceptional recital dedicated to the sublime voices of castrati, legendary figures of the 17th and 18th centuries.
Mathieu Salama, soprano countertenor, invites you to discover a fascinating baroque repertoire combining arias, sacred songs, and opera arias composed by the greatest masters:
Handel, Caccini, Caldara, Porpora, Bach, Purcell… Emotion, joy, and sharing are the common threads running through this concert, designed to be accessible to all.
Through interactive moments, lively exchanges with the audience, and engaging explanations, this recital immerses you in the enigmatic and moving world of castrati, those true “voices of angels” who left their mark on the history of music.
