Desperate heroines pour out their hearts in Italian Baroque

Victims of their own emotions or quite the contrary: powerful shapers of their own destiny? Deborah Cachet – Bruges's very own star soprano – gives voice to all manner of dramatic ladies, musically sketched in the tones of the Italian Baroque. Moments of ecstatic happiness shift seamlessly into the deepest despair, shattering doubt… and a glimpse of hope. Queens, sorceresses and innocent (and not so innocent) lovers sing out in vivid colours, tossed by the turbulence of life.
