Superstar mezzo-soprano Cecilia Bartoli attacks this Grammy-winning collection of Vivaldi arias with her typical fiery zest. Drawn from superb operas rarely heard in their entirety, like "La fida ninfa" and "L'Olimpiade," the melodies veer between lyrical charm and blistering drama. Bartoli's ardent advocacy of this music should silence any critics who complain about the composer's lack of variety. Vivaldi's music offers much more than these deservedly popular instrumental suites, and Bartoli captures this wide emotional range, from the delicately pastoral "Zefiretti che sussurate" to the sprightly "Gelido in ogni vena" to the moving plaint "Dite Ohimè." More overtly dramatic than her previous recital recordings, the many fireworks on The Vivaldi Album -- from "Dopo un Orrida Procella" to "Di trombe guerriere" -- will grab your attention. The chamber ensemble Il Giardino Armonico provides sensitively pliant accompaniment, following Bartoli with turn-on-a-dime precision. Benjamin Ivry

New York Times

A listener follows [The Vivaldi Album] like the spellbound poet of Offenbach's Tales of Hoffmann, watching the mechanical doll Olympia through magic glasses. The sheer speed, range and intricacy (as well as accompaniments that sometimes tinkle like a music box) hint at clockwork wonders even as Ms. Bartoli's warmth gives the music a living breath and heart. Matthew Gurewitsch

Gramophone

Bartoli tackles her discoveries with infectious glee, enjoying too the beguiling instrumental palette of Il Giardino Armonico, whose pair of flageolets, duetting over muted violins and pizzicato violas and cellos, calm the torments of love in 'Di due rai'.
