SENTIMENTI Karine Babajanyan, soprano Alessandro Amoretti, piano

Soprano Karine Babajanyan presents Sentimenti, her second album on the OehmsClassics label. The programme features a selection of works by Italian composers (and poets) from the 16th to the 20th century – Respighi, Tosti and Cesti – together with three songs by Liszt, who drew lasting artistic inspiration from the Italian arts during his pilgrimage to Italy to produce his Tre Sonetti di Petrarca, composed between 1842 and 1846. Babajanyan sang the title role in Mascagni’s opera Iris in the 2020 production by the Berliner Operngruppe. She is accompanied by pianist Alessandro Amoretti.
