Descrição do vídeo no YouTube, em inglês:
"Vivaldi's sacred motet "In turbato mare" RV 627, featuring soprano Dominique Labelle and performed in its entirety. Live, high definition video from the Voices of Music "Stabat Mater" concert, March 2012.
Antonio Vivaldi is known primarily as a composer of concertos, but in his own time he was an opera impresario, hastily dashing off concertos for cash (sometimes in coach trips from one production to another) to fund his lavish productions. For special occasions, or special patrons--such as the orchestra in Dresden--Vivaldi brought the full force of his compositional abilities to the table, and crafted masterpieces of counterpoint, in stark contrast to many of his hastily composed works. Vivaldi's sacred works are nearly as compelling as his best concertos, and the motet "In turbato mare irato" combines typical operatic melismas, recitatives and Da Capo arias, as well as a challenging vocal range of two octaves. Composers of the baroque period (especially Handel) often used a number of compositional tricks to speed the process of churning out music, such as recycling large pieces of thematic material, or piling all of the instruments onto one part to avoid the complexity of full counterpoint. In turbato, in contrast, is composed with a four-part harmony throughout. The fully-allegorical text can be read as an odyssey towards spiritual or intellectual light, but the verses are suffused with secular sensuality, paralleling the Italian art and religious architecture of the same period.
The original score contains a brief recit with continuo, we have turned this into an accompagnato piece in which the strings play the harmonies."
