In the present Passacaille recording, Hana Blazikova combines her angelic soprano with the supernaturally beautiful sound of the zinc. Her duo partner is one of the most renowned zinc-players of our time: Bruce Dickey. The selected pieces of Tarquinio Merula, Alessandro Scarlatti, Maurizio Cazzati and others are characterized by an irrepressible joy and downright stunning vocal and instrumental virtuosity. An interesting addition on this release is a specially composed piece from Greek composer Calliope Tsoupaki, Melena iml.
