About
In Venice 1651, Cavalli presented his new opera “La Rosinda” at the Teatro San Apolinaire. It is a story of love and magic and is one of the least performed 17th century operas, which is a tragedy in itself. Mike Fentross conducts a cast of known and young singers in this spectacular performance. This is a 3cd set and represents great value.
The last recording of La Rosinda was in 1973 so enjoy every moment and indulge yourself in the 212-page booklet that accompanies this deluxe version.

February 2012
the overall dramatic spirit is strong, the words are delivered convincingly and idiomatically, and the continuo accompaniments and ensemble dances are intelligently scored and realised...The strongest all-round vocal performance comes from Emanuela Galli as the opera's most interesting character...In short, this is an account with all the urgency and variety required to realise this rare work as a drama.
