\n\nThe most talented and renowned French countertenor Philippe JAROUSSKY has come into the international limelight due to his voice range and coloratura rivaling that of a female soprano. On his second visit to Taiwan, he will be accompanied by the Ensemble Artaserse, which he cofounded. This ensemble is known as one of the best contemporary classical music ensembles worldwide. All members were personally selected by JAROUSSKY and therefore exhibit a perfect chemistry which adds musical depth and emotional resonance to their live performances. The program for this concert features selected arias from the great Baroque composers VIVALDI and HANDEL written for the most famous Castrati (castrated male singers). These magnificent melodies will be newly interpreted by JAROUSSKY who will delight the audience with his charming angel-like voice and amazing coloratura skills. Listeners will be taken on a journey back in time to the glorious Baroque era.
