Bach and a composer who worked with Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach and Joachim Kwanz at the Berlin court. Based on a libretto by Metastasio, the work depicts the Greek mythological hero Achilles, disguised as a woman, torn between love and battle on the island of Scyros. The outstanding soloist ensemble (including three countertenors), nearly all of whom are singers in the upper register, renders the nuances of vocal technique in the transition from the Baroque to the Classical period in a remarkably impressive manner.\n\nTokyo M-Plus\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rondeau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51247438922017,"sku":"4037408062718","price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4037408062718.jpg?v=1746339783","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-us\/products\/4037408062718","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
