2019 release. Facce d’amore – Faces of Love – is the second solo album from countertenor Jakub Józef Orlinski. It follows Anima Sacra, released in 2018. This album brings a switch from the sacred to the personal and passionate. As the Polish-born, New York-trained singer explains: “On Anima Sacra I wanted to take listeners on a spiritual journey through an entire program based on sacred music of the 18th century. The idea behind Facce d’amore is a bit different.” The program – which includes an impressive eight world premiere recordings – comprises “operatic arias that tell a story, showing a musical picture of a male lover in the baroque era. They focus on totally different aspects of love – not only the positive side, like joyful or reciprocated love, but also the side where the characters are possessed by anger or even madness.”
