Forgotten Arias

Description

With 'Forgotten Arias', countertenor Philippe Jaroussky pays tribute to the composers of the late Baroque and the great librettist of the era, Pietro Metastasio. The ten arias on the album, written between 1748 and 1770 by nine composers, are recorded as world premieres. Metastasio's librettos were set by many composers - including Vivaldi, Handel, Gluck and Mozart - and gave rise to hundreds of operas. The most familiar names on the multifaceted program of forgotten arias are Gluck, Johann Christian Bach, Jommelli, Hasse and Piccinni. The lesser-known ones are Bernasconi, Ferrandini, Traetta and Valentini. Philippe Jaroussky's partners on this new album are conductor Julien Chauvin and his orchestra Le Concert de la Loge.
