Description:

Kirkby Sings the Works of the Little-Known Italian Baroque Composer,Cataldo Amodei!Cataldo Amodei (c. 1650c. 1695) was a Baroque-era composer born in Sicily who was active in Naples. Although all the works included here are cantatas, they take on the character of mini-operas. Recordings of his music are extremely rare, making Kirkbys exquisite performance all the more valuable. The accompaniment by two mastersLindberg and Mortensenis impeccable. Running time: 78 minutes, 37 seconds.
