Beyond (180g) [LP]

The multiple award-winning countertenor has already been acclaimed by international critics for his selection of works for his album Facce d'amore.

Now he has put together an extraordinary program of vocal and instrumental works by 18 composers of the early Italian Baroque. They were significant figures in their day, but now their names are all but forgotten. Among the musicians still known today, besides Claudio Monteverdi, are certainly Giulio Caccini, Johann Caspar Kerll and Francesco Cavalli - among those hardly heard: Names like Pallavicino, Marini and Jarzebski.
