On her first Pentatone album, Czech star mezzo-soprano Magdalena Kozen� returns to the Baroque repertoire that launched her early career. 'Il giardino dei sospiri' is a collection of scenes from secular cantatas on tragic love, ranging from Handel's 'Qual ti riveggio' to new editions of works by Leo ('Angelica e Medoro'), Marcello ('Arianna abbandonata') and Gasparini ('Atalia'). Initially conceived as a scenic project, 'Il giardino dei sospiri' offers a richly-faceted and profoundly moving aural drama. Kozen� interprets the tragic heroines of these love stories with fervour, accompanied by V�clav Luks and Collegium 1704.
