Camerata Bach Choir/Gelmetti - Gioachino Rossini: Eduardo e Cristina

Rossini�s Eduardo e Cristina was a huge success in its day, but as perhaps the last �centone� opera by a major composer, it became forgotten under the subsequent tide of Romantic idealism. Today we can put these prejudices aside and enjoy this masterful creation for what it is: a hugely entertaining parade of beautiful and spectacular musical �hits� set to a familiar story of secret love, dramatic crisis and triumphant resolution. This 2017 Bad Wildbad revival was summed up as �an evening of pure bel canto pleasure!� by Operagazet.
