3.0 out of 5 stars Energetic performance of a rarity, 9 Mar 2008
By Mr. T. Harvey "trevorbelmont2" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This setting of an allegorical play 'Sub olea pacis et palma virtutis' was first performed as part of the coronation ceremony of Emperor Charles VI and his wife in Prague, 1723 and it receives a committed, energetic performance on these two discs from Czech/Slovak forces, playing on original instruments at baroque pitch. Musically, Zelenka is his own man. He adopts a very busy orchestral texture which at times reminded me of Rameau. Zelenka is very fond of runs within inner parts and deploys the 'baroque echo' to good effect, with interplay between the two violin sections. The vocal writing is quite 'convoluted' with the soloists having to negotiate some tricky passages. Perhaps there is a lack of variety in the arias; as this is a ceremonial piece there is an awful lot of D major. Two of the arias, nos.22 & 28, are more restrained and put the spotlight on the chalumeau and cello respectively. If you have exhausted all the available Handel and Vivaldi operas, then these discs are worth exploring.
