Despite the fact that Tamerlano has a fiancée, a foreign princess named Irene, he tries to force Bayezet's beautiful daughter, Asteria, to become his wife. Asteria, on the other hand, is in love with Prince Andronico of Greece, an ally of Tamerlano. Asteria tries to secretly poison Tamerlano, but Irene discovers it and ......\n\n\n\nVivaldi's late opera \"Bayazetto\" was composed to \"Tamerlano\" by Nicola Francesco Heim, also known as the libretto for Handel's opera, and premiered in Verona in 1735 as the season opener. Vivaldi's autograph score has been attempted to be reconstructed by researchers because, although the recitative that tells the story is complete, some of the arias that follow the recitative have been lost. The work is also based on \"pasticcio\" (a mixture of quotations from existing works), a dramatic technique widely practiced in opera during Vivaldi's time. Vivaldi incorporated arias by popular Neapolitan composers (Geminiano Giacomelli, Riccardo Broschi, and Johann Adolph Hasse) into this work.\n\nConductor Federico Maria Sardelli, who is also a scholar of Baroque opera, has created a version of the lost arias after careful examination and research into the instrumentation of orchestras of the time.In addition, Italian director Fabio Celesa and his creative team have extended the concept of the work as a pasticcio to the production. The performers tell the story in a recitative in the foreground of the stage, and the arias are interspersed throughout the production as 25 short plays (meta-operas) that are detached from the story, creating a spectacular stage like a merry-go-round. The cast includes Renato Dolcini, the famous baritone who won acclaim as Leporello in \"Don Giovanni\" at the New National Theatre in 2022; Sonya Plina, a contralto who specializes in Vivaldi and sings with great enthusiasm; and Raphael Pé, a popular countertenor who sings with solid technique and rich expression. The tenor singer Rafael Pé, who is popular for his solid technique and expressive singing, and many other singers who excel in their singing performances. The orchestra, led by Sardelli's baton, brings this pasticcio masterpiece vividly back to life with Vivaldi's lively music on a stage that draws from various scenes from movies, TV dramas, and computer games.\n\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dynamic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51118960279841,"sku":"4589538821630","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538821630.jpg?v=1743696336","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-us\/products\/4589538821630","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
