Spoken

In just a few years, he would become one of the most prominent opera composers of the 18th century. He would rival Händel in London, mentor the great castrati Farinelli and Caffarelli, and influence Haydn in Vienna. Sadly, he would eventually die in poverty in his hometown of Naples. And it was for Naples that the very young Porpora composed this oratorio dedicated to the Passion of Christ, in which he already showed the mastery of contrapuntal technique and the sensitivity to vocal virtuosity of his approaching maturity. Mary, John, and Magdalene witness Christ’s crucifixion together with Divine Justice. But the latter’s unwavering confidence is not enough to ease the Virgin’s suffering. She barely resists falling into despair, revealing the mixture of humanity and theatricality that one expects from any great mourner.

English

Di lì a qualche anno sarebbe diventato uno dei più grandi operisti del Settecento: concorrente di Händel a Londra e maestro dei grandi castrati Farinelli e Caffarelli, come pure di Haydn a Vienna, prima di morire in povertà nella sua Napoli. E proprio per la città partenopea il giovanissimo Porpora compose questo oratorio dedicandolo alla Passione di Gesù Cristo: già vi si riconoscono la padronanza della tecnica contrappuntistica e la sensibilità per il virtuosismo vocale dell’incipiente maturità. La Madonna, Giovanni e la Maddalena assistono al Calvario di Cristo insieme a Divina Giustizia: non basta la fiducia granitica di quest’ultima a lenire le sofferenze della Vergine che a malapena riesce a non abbandonarsi alla disperazione, rivelando quel misto di umanità e teatralità che ci si aspetta da ogni grande compianto.
