Mezzo-soprano Marina Viotti emerged, fully formed, with A Tribute To Pauline Viardot (Little Tribeca, 2022), honoring French mezzo soprano/composer Pauline Viardot (1821 – 1910), which she followed with the uniformly fine Mezzo Mozart (Aparté / Little Tribeca, 2024). These were fairly standard classical vocal recitals with more than their share of talent and charm. Melankhôlia: In Darkness Through The Light is mezzo-soprano Marina Viotti’s debut recording for Naïve Classiques, and it is a dramatically different project altogether. This project had its beginnings in 2017 with lutenist Vincent Flückiger and multi-instrumentalist (engineer and producer) Fred Chappuis. The project had its first show the same year at the Lucerne Theatre under the direction of Wouter Van Looy. The premise of the project was the melancholy songs of English composer John Dowland (1563-1626) seasoned with like modern compositions set against an evolving wall of electronic sonics.
