ROSSINI, G.: Ciro in Babilonia [Opera] (Gemmabella, Islam-Ali-Zade, Botta, ARS Brunensis Chamber Choir, Württemberg Philharmonic, Fogliani)

A story of love, marital fidelity, the defeat of a tyrant (the Babylonian King Belshazzar) and the triumph of the good, Rossini�s Ciro in Babilonia is a bold fusion of biblical and secular subjects set to brilliant, thrilling music. Although intended to be staged during Lent, Ciro includes all the time-honoured ingredients of serious opera such as the test of love, military scenes, the help of a turncoat, disguise, prison scenes, a funeral march and a sudden happy ending.
