Countertenor Max Emanuel Cencic presents a generous selection of fine opera arias by Baroque master Nicola Porpora, including seven world premiere recordings. A celebrated Neapolitan composer and singing teacher, Porpora’s ability to set the Italian language to music was internationally acknowledged during his lifetime. Cencic has been at the forefront of rediscovering this neglected composer’s operatic legacy. He is joined by Armonia Atenea, performing on period instruments under the direction of George Petrou.
