Jean-Marie Leclair: Scylla et Glaucus - 2 CD

Leírás

Jean-Marie Leclair's Scylla et Glaucus (Tragedie en un prologue et cinq actes Paris, 1746) provides an excellent opportunity for Gyorgy Vashegyi, a luxury cast and music scholars at the Centre de Musique Baroque de Versailles to revisit the French Baroque operatic canon and emerge with a fresh new take on this established work, the violin virtuoso and composer's single offering for the Paris Opera.

For this recording Gyorgy Vashegyi has made use of the original performing manuscript of the batteur de mesure, one consequence being that the dramatic structure of the work is tightened.
