«Ercole sul Termodonte» is the recording of Antonio Vivaldi's baroque opera, released in 2020 by Erato as a double CD.
The libretto is based on Hercules' ninth labor, and Vivaldi composed it in 1723 as his first opera for Rome, reusing numbers from earlier works. The score shows a wide expressive range, with showpiece arias and instrumentation full of striking orchestral and harmonic effects.
Joyce DiDonato, Vivica Genaux, Diana Damrau, Philippe Jaroussky and Rolando Villazón sing with Europa Galante, conducted by Fabio Biondi. Edition on 2 CDs, 144 minutes, reissue in the veritas x2 series.
For fans of baroque opera and renowned voices in today's classical repertoire.
