Our Take

In the realm of forgotten Italian opera composers, Leonardo Vinci may not be a household name, but his work on "Didone Abbandonata" is a hidden gem waiting to be unearthed. This album, featuring a range of talented artists, brings Vinci's dramatic tale of love and betrayal to life with passion and flair.

From the haunting vocals of the talented soprano to the intricate orchestration that weaves throughout each track, it's clear that Vinci had a knack for crafting emotional and engaging music. The production value on this album is top-notch, with each instrument and voice coming through crystal clear, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in the story being told.

The standout track has to be the heart-wrenching aria towards the end of Act 2, where the protagonist, Dido, pours her soul out in a tragic soliloquy. The raw emotion in the vocalist's delivery is enough to bring even the most stoic listener to tears.

While "Didone Abbandonata" may not be everyone's cup of tea, fans of classical music and opera will find much to love in this album. Vinci's work may have been overshadowed by his more famous contemporaries, but this album serves as a reminder of the rich musical tapestry he contributed to. So grab a glass of wine, settle in, and let yourself be transported back to the 18th century with this magnificent album.
