    Sonia Prina at Wigmore Hall: R3 in Concert Thursday 11the January

    Live from Wigmore Hall in London, contralto Sonia Prina and the Akademie für Alte Musik, Berlin, perform works by Handel, Ferrandini, Bach, Locatelli and Vivaldi.

    Handel: Concerto Grosso in F, Op 6 No 2
    Ferrandini: Cantata 'Il pianto di Maria'

    8.15pm Interval

    Bach: Cantata 'Widerstehe doch der Sünde' BWV54
    Locatelli: Concerto Grosso in E flat, Op 7 No 6 'Il Pianto d'Arianna'
    Vivaldi: Motet 'Longe mala, umbrae, terrores' RV629
    Live from Wigmore Hall, London, contralto Sonia Prina sings Ferrandini, Bach and Vivaldi.


    I think she is spectacular (even more so if she still has the green, or was it blue? hair) although a very much a Marmite singer.

    Interesting, I will give it a lesson, ds. Nice to see some lesser known items in the programme, too.

      Sometimes Herr Bach seems very serious indeed, in comparison.

        A rather unusual Bach but I thought Vivaldi’s motet Longe mala was a perfect choice for her voice. Very much enjoyed the concert.

          I love Marmite (can't have it nowadays, alas ) - but Ms Prina's voice wasn't at all one that I could warm to, I regret to say.
