Made in collaboration with Fondazione Bon and Festival Risonanze.
The figure of Stradella has always lent itself to the romantic embroideries of historians, who have highlighted his amorous whims, often overshadowing his role of primary importance in developing the more complex and daring Italian style, both on the theatrical front than on the cantatastic one and even more properly in the instrumental one (he is the first "concerto grosso" dated 1670, preceding by several years the well-known op. VI by A. Corelli). 

This program, therefore, aims to highlight the magnificence of his style through cantatas and motets as well as through the approach to contemporary authors from various areas of Italy (where he resided for a certain period of his life ). The theme of escape from a sea of afflictions towards a port of salvation is the background to the profane cantata Dalle rive del Tebro, elaborated in several arias and recitatives, to be performed without interruption. The text contains the words of a mysterious character who fled from the Latin shores (Tebro is the ancient name of the Tiber) who find asylum and escape from his misfortunes with a Germanic king to whom he praises and gratefully appreciates. It is legitimate to think that many of Stradella's cantatas had links with autobiographical cues; even in this we seem to glimpse a glimpse of the author's life, interwoven with escapes and moves from one city to another in search of a safe haven from unveiled clandestine loves.
