FIRST PUBLISHED 19 MAR 2026

French countertenor and conductor Philippe Jaroussky’s discography is a rich showcase of Baroque & Early Music. From operatic arias by Vivaldi and Handel to rediscovered gems, his collaborations with leading orchestras and groups, including his own Ensemble Artaserse, and his recording projects with the Erato label early on, have led to a diverse and authoritative catalogue.

To accompany our recent feature interview with Jaroussky, we have created a playlist of some of his most distinctive tracks. Hear a range of works, from Antonio Vivaldi to Giovani Paola Cima, from George Frideric Handel to Nicola Porpora, with Jaroussky in collaboration with artists such as Christina Pluhar, Emmanuelle Haïm and Andrea Marcon among others.

Listen on Spotify.
