Background: This, L'Arpeggiata's first release on Virgin Classics, explores music by Claudio Monteverdi, blending instruments and voices - including those of countertenor Philippe Jaroussky and soprano Núria Rial in a kind of intoxicating baroque jam session. It includes the final duet from L'incoronazione di Poppea, often cited as one of the most sensuous and beautiful love scenes in all opera.

Founded in 2000, L'Arpeggiata is a French-based ensemble directed by Austrian-born harpist and lutenist Christina Pluhar. Its members, some of the leading European soloists in their field, join forces with exceptional singers from the worlds of baroque and traditional music. The group's particular focus is on French, Italian and Neapolitan music of the 17th century and it works with often daring instrumental improvisations, exploiting rich textures created by blending a variety of plucked instruments, and a vocal style influenced by traditional music.

This recording was made in the celebrated Vredenburg concert hall in Utrecht, where L'Arpeggiata was resident ensemble at the Festival Oude Muziek in 2006.
