Rosa Feola, Cappella Neapolitana, Antonio Florio - Son regina e sono amante

Soprano Rosa Feola, Cappella Neapolitana and Maestro Antonio Florio pay tribute to Niccolo Piccinni, master of the 18th -century Neapolitan opera tradition, with Son regina e sono amante. Deliberately avoiding his most famous work, La buona figliola, the album offers arias from his French and Italian operas, including some in Neapolitan vernacular. Given her origins, Feola is the ideal ambassador to bring the once famous Piccinni back into the limelight. Soprano Ros Feola has received many accolades for her achievements and is a regular guest at the most important opera houses worldwide. Cappella Neapolitana and its artistic director Antonio Florio have played a seminal role in the rediscovery of Neapolitan music since it's foundation in 1987. All artists make their Pentatone debut.
