Because of his posts at important Italian churches he is primarily known for his output of sacred vocal works: masses, motets and oratorios. This new recording however presents secular cantatas for bass solo and basso continuo, mainly based on Greek mythology. The cantata Dalle balze sicane is about the mythological giant Enceladus who, having been plunged by Athena into the bowels of Mount Etna, invokes Jupiter to placate the outrage against him: the giant's bitter afflictions, combined with the screams and hisses of the souls of the underworld, will cause the Earth to tremble, provoking, "with deep thunder" and "with fire", the reawakening of the volcano. Corsi is a master in evoking this drama in vivid and realistic tone-painting of daring dissonances.
Beautifully sung by Mauro Borgiono, one of the most prominent young baritones of the moment. As a specialist in Early Music he worked with Jordi Savall, Rinaldo Alessandrini and Diego Fasolis.
