Today he is almost forgotten, but it is said that he was an opera composer of exceptional renown in Europe from the time of his death until several decades after his death. The opera \"Damila\" was performed during the Carnival of 1680. The story centers on Queen Damila, the wife of the Egyptian king Creonte, and the many characters whose thoughts are swirling around her. This unusual work was written for performance at the Teatro Marionette in Venice, and is considered the earliest opera for marionette theater. The libretto was adapted for a marionette opera by Achaiuori, a poet and puppeteer, from an original story by popular playwright Aurelio Aureli, which Ziani's uncle Pietro Andrea used as the script for his work.Ziani's unique writing style, with its varied recitative and uplifting arias with constant rhythms, is devoted to the expression of the text, and in particular, the technical aria devoted to Damila, who feigns madness, is the opera's crowning achievement.\n\nSalvatore Carchiolo, a veteran keyboardist who has served as soloist and bass continuo player with such outstanding Italian groups as Rinaldo Alessandrini's Concerto Italiano and Giorgio Sasso's Insieme Sturmentare di Roma, wrote the revised score for the performance. Salvatore Carchiolo, a veteran keyboardist, wrote the revised score for the performance and recorded it for this recording. Performed by the Enea Baroque Orchestra (EBO), an ancient instrument orchestra in Rome founded in 2018 by contralto Francesca Asciotti. Raffaella Milanesi sings the title role, and other great singers from the world of Italian ancient music, including Asciotti, Frigato, and Zanazi, sing this little-known masterpiece.In contrast to his fame at the time, Ziani's works are rarely performed today, but this world premiere recording of his operas is sure to trigger a reevaluation of Ziani's excellent operatic writing style.\n\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dynamic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51435793940769,"sku":"4589538823719","price":27.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538823719.jpg?v=1751292651","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/it-it\/products\/4589538823719","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
