Excerpt:L'Orfeo Introduzione
For her first recital disc on harmonia mundi, Sunhae Im has chosen four cantatas dealing with the myth of Orpheus. The Greek poet who had inspired the birth of modern tragedy at the end of the Quattrocento and of opera a century later was still a powerful stimulus to the composers of the late Baroque, such as Alessandro Scarlatti and Giambattista Pergolesi in Italy and in France Clérambault and Rameau.
