Peu goûté lors de sa création pour son côté complètement atypique, Theodora dix-septième oratorio anglais de Haendel, n’illustre pas un thème tiré de la Bible mais se déroule aux premiers temps du christianisme. Nul « happy end » pour cette histoire puisque le couple de héros marcheront vers le supplice à la fin de l’ouvrage à la stupeur des premiers auditeurs qui s’identifient pourtant à l’action. Considéré aujourd’hui comme un ouvrage majeur, véritable « opéra de l’esprit », il est présenté ici dans une nouvelle version enregistrée en studio en 2023 sous la direction de Jonathan Cohen dirigeant de son clavecin l’ensemble Arcangelo et les cinq protagonistes de cette histoire dramatique et cruelle. Regorgeant de lyrisme, Theodora soulève des idées touchant à la fois à la loyauté, au devoir, au patriotisme, à la tolérance, au matérialisme et à la justice, autant de questions qui sont, et seront, toujours les nôtres. À la tête d’une distribution sans faille, Jonathan Cohen dirige cette partition avec chaleur, précision et un grand dynamisme qui vient irriguer toute son interprétation. Louise Adler est une magistrale Theodora, jouant de sa voix profonde avec une expression déchirante. Le contre-ténor Tim Mead (Didymus) est une des grandes voix d’aujourd’hui, particulièrement apprécié dans les grands rôles handéliens. Les voix de ces deux martyrs sont splendidement entourées par celles d’Anna Stéphany, Stuart Jackson et Adam Plachetka. Enfin, la qualité de l’ensemble vocal et des instrumentistes restitués par une prise de son à la fois précise et chaleureuse font de cet album une des grandes versions d’un des ultimes chefs-d’œuvre de Haendel. © François Hudry/QOBUZ/2024
