my confusion towards 2005 il complesso barocco radamisto only grows.
they seem to generally be abiding by the original production, but they also use december revival material in some parts? in “dopo l’orride procelle,” for example ( though several arias also have this issue ), the text in the libretto i was reading didn’t match up with what was being sung. but now i’m looking at the libretto of the december revival and sure enough, the lyrics in that one were the lyrics used in the recording.
“wait, does this explain why ‘deh! fuggi un traditore’ was attributed to fraarte? because it does seem that fraarte is the one who sings that aria in the december revival version.” yes, but he doesn’t just appear out of nowhere in that one, he “speaks” in the recitative segment before the aria as well. and the recitative used in the recording is from the original production, where it’s just tigrane and polissena there. it wouldn’t make sense for fraarte to randomly come in, surely. it makes even less sense for him to appear ONLY for the aria.

act 2, scene 9+10. polissena… polissena please, he really isn’t worth it.
that aside- good to see that the sole tenor in radamisto is an utter shitass. yes, this is the kind of representation i want ( if you haven’t already figured from my opinions on grimoaldo rodelindareginadelangobardi ).
the coloratura in “dopo torbide procelle” is very satisfying to listen to.
everything that polissena sings is wonderful. patrizia ciofi does an absolutely fantastic job of conveying all that.
