Description

Experience a historic musical event with the World Premiere recording of Nicola Antonio Porpora's Polifemo. Presented by Parnassus Arts, this release brings to life the work of one of the most enigmatic figures of the Baroque era. Porpora, the teacher of Farinelli and a contemporary rival to masters like Handel and Hasse, played a major role in the evolution of 18th-century opera. This specific London opera dates back to 1735. It was originally performed by the Opera of the Nobility at the King's Theatre, appearing during the same season that Handel premiered his own works at Covent Garden. This recording allows listeners to explore the musical landscapes of Naples, London, Dresden, and Vienna through the lens of a composer who shaped the operatic development of his time. Perfect for collectors of classical music and enthusiasts of Baroque opera, this recording offers a rare look at a significant piece of musical history.
