Catharsis


Around the year 1600, a group of Florentine aristocrats, inspired by ancient Greek drama, gave birth to opera. They intended to move and glorify human passions in such a strong way that the spectator's soul would be cleansed of these passions. This was the process that Aristotle called 'catharsis'. Xavier Sabata grasps this highly intense moment at the heart of the destiny of legendary heroes of Baroque opera. A fascinating album by the author of Bad Guys, accompanied by George Petrou and Armonia Atenea.

C’est le processus qu’Aristote appelle «catharsis».Xavier Sabata saisit ce moment si intense au cœur des destins des héros légendaires de l'opéra baroque. Un album passionnant de l'auteur de "Bad Guys", porté par l'Armonia Atenea de George Petrou.
