About "Catone in Utica, RV 705 / Act 2 : Vivaldi: Catone in Utica, RV 705 / Act 2 - "Se mai senti spirarti sul volto"" by Cecilia Bartoli

In this Vivaldi aria, Bartoli paints a lover’s plea with delicate, sighing ornaments. The line drifts like a breeze over a still lake, yet each turn of phrase carries an undercurrent of anxiety. Sweetness and unease mingle in a performance of exquisite poise.
