Artaserse
"Artaserse" is not a single artist but a vibrant early music vocal ensemble founded by acclaimed French countertenor Philippe Jaroussky. The group takes its name from Leonardo Vinci’s 1730 opera *Artaserse*, a work central to their mission of reviving Baroque masterpieces with fresh energy. Known for assembling powerhouse countertenors like Jaroussky himself, along with peers such as Max Emanuel Cenčić and Valer Sabadus, Artaserse brings fiery theatricality to 17th- and 18th-century repertoire. Their recordings, like *Vivaldi: Cessate, omai cessate* and *Sances: Stabat Mater*, showcase their knack for blending pristine vocal technique with raw emotional storytelling, often collaborating with period-instrument specialists for historically informed performances. While they’re rooted in Italian Baroque drama, projects like *Dualità* reveal their playful curiosity, pairing contrasting works to highlight the era’s theatrical extremes—think celestial harmonies one moment, virtuosic vocal fireworks the next. A must-listen for anyone who likes their classical music with a side of daring flair.
