Synopsis

A new event in the Vivaldi Edition, following in the footsteps
of the 2003 release «Vespri...», which won a Gramophone
Award in 2004, among other honors
This is the first major release by Rinaldo Alessandrini in
the Vivaldi Edition since 2004
The recording presents two major sacred works by Vivaldi:
the celebrated Gloria RV589 and the much rarer RV588
The recording also features a work recorded only 4 times
in recording history: the ‘Ostro Picta’ introduction, that
Rinaldo has chosen to associate with the Gloria RV589
The all-star soloist line-up is headed by contralto Sara
Mingardo, «one of the richest voices before the public
today» (Gramophone, July 2009). Don’t miss the «Domine
Deus Agnus Dei» from the Gloria RV589
Rinaldo Alessandrini will perform several prestigious
concerts in the 2009-2010. In September, he will conduct
during the opening concert of La Scala (Milano). The
program will be Orfeo, staged by Bob Wilson and starring
Sara Mingardo...
