Anna Netrebko – Purcell: Dido and Aeneas, Z. 626: “When I am laid in earth“

On her new album ’Amata dalle tenebre’ the superstar recorded some of the most dramatic and impassioned arias in the repertoire, at Milan’s legendary La Scala, with the Orchestra del Teatro alla Scala under La Scala’s Music Director, Riccardo Chailly. Italian filmmaker Elena Petitti di Roreto has immortalised four of Netrebko’s performances in music videos that form part of a captivating avantgarde music film: “Anna – Stage of Emotions”, a radical mix of the sensual essence of opera and a contemporary visual vocabulary. In recent years, the singer has turned, with notable success, to some of opera’s more dramatic roles and she demonstrates her mastery of this repertoire here as well, bringing colours to Purcell’s aria “ When I am laid in earth” from the opera “Dido and Aeneas”.
