HANDEL, G.F.: Lotario [Opera] (Lombardi Mazzulli, Vistoli, Bonitatibus, K. Adam, Tomkiewicz, Ki-Hyun Park, Halle Handel Festival Orchestra, Cremonesi)

Handel’s success with Italian-style opera in London had passed its initial peak by 1729. Lotario – a tale of revenge and heroism based on events in the life of Holy Roman Empress Adelaide of Italy – was the first of a new series of works intended to revive interest and challenge society’s new ‘vile taste’ for satire and light entertainment. Despite being one of Handel’s least-known operas, it displays his renowned talent for writing convincing drama with melodically rich and emotionally charged arias. This live recording is performed on period instruments by the Händelfestspielorchester Halle.
