Vivaldi: Orlando Furioso

Anne Desler - Mezzo-soprano, Nicki Kennedy - Soprano, Marina De Lisa - Mezzo-soprano, Luca Dordolo - Tenor, Lucia Sciannimanico - Mezzo-soprano, Modo Antiquo, Federico Maria Sardelli - Conductor

Vivaldi wrote some of the most incredible music for mezzo-sopranos and contraltos. Orlando Furioso, a mid-career work, remains one of the best known. In this new recording, Orlando shimmers and amazes anew. Despite the convoluted libretto, it is a musical gem, given its due here in a finely performed version.
- excerpt from Wholenote Magazine review, July 2008
Vivaldi's rarely recorded and rarely performed opera Orlando Furioso. An excellent representation of Baroque Italian opera, set to a text by Tuquato Tasso. This opera is an essential piece to any Vivaldi or Opera collection.
