Vivaldi: Armida al campo d'Egitto (Tesori del Piemonte, Vol. 44);

This opera, which marks the end of the apogee of Vivaldi's first Venetian period, has come down to us without the music to Act II. Adopting a practice
that was common in Vivaldi s day, Alessandrini has reconstructed the missing music using already-existing
pieces by Vivaldi very carefully chosen with the help of the musicologist Frédéric Delaméa. A very successful
restoration, enabling us to discover a new work by the brilliant Venetian composer! Following La fida ninfa and the re-issue of Farnace, this is the 10th opera recording in the Vivaldi Edition. This is the 2nd opera recording of Rinaldo Alessandrini in
the Vivaldi Edition, 7 years after L Olimpiade. The vocal cast is almost fully Italian and includes confirmed stars Sara Mingardo & Furio Zanasiand rising stars Romina Basso & Martin Oro
