The Italian conductor Ottavio Dantone breathes new life into Cesare in Egitto, an opera by Geminiano Giacomelli (1692-1740) based on a libretto written by Domenico Lalli with the assistance of a young collaborator not yet in his thirties: Carlo Goldoni. Cesare in Egitto, is considered to be Giacomelli's masterpiece; his drammi per musica enjoyed great success in Parma, Venice, Milan, Rome, Turin and Graz. He also influenced the most eminent musicians of his time: Vivaldi, for example, used arias by Giacomelli in his pasticcio Bajazet. This world premiere recording was made with the Accademia Bizantina and first-rate soloists at the Innsbruck Festival, where Ottavio Dantone has been music director since 2024.
