    Album Description

    Dive into the enchanting world of Baroque and Renaissance Italian love songs with Magdalena Kožená's captivating album, "Lettere amorose." Released in 2010 under the prestigious Archiv Produktion label, this collection is a testament to Kožená's exceptional vocal prowess and her deep connection to the music of the 17th century. Collaborating with the talented ensemble Private Musicke and conductor Pierre Pitzl, Kožená brings to life the passionate and intricate compositions of masters such as Monteverdi, Vitali, D'India, and Caccini.

Whether you're a seasoned classical music enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, this album offers a delightful exploration of the human experience through the lens of Baroque and Renaissance love songs.
