ANTONIO: Lotti - Caldara - Vivaldi

ANTONIO: Lotti - Caldara - Vivaldi

New discoveries with countertenor Alex Potter and la festa musicale Three Venetian contemporaries named Antonio – one, Vivaldi, achieved world fame with his concerti. But who has heard of Antonio Lotti and Caldara today? In their time, they were famous composers beyond the borders of Venice, and yet some of their music has lain dormant in archives for over three hundred years. Now selected alto cantatas by Lotti as well as oratorio introductions and an “Ave Regina” by Caldara may reawaken attention: paired with the “Nisi Dominus”, RV 608, and two rousing concerti by Vivaldi, the baroque orchestra la festa musicale and the internationally acclaimed countertenor Alex Potter present an album full of virtuoso and touching musical treasures by the three Antonios from the Canal Grande.
