Imperial Arias | CD recording Le Filigrane


Le Filigrane records its first CD album.

In the first decades of the eighteenth century, Vienna saw a tradition of ornamented arias with obbligato trombone. Composers include Antonio Caldara, Johann Joseph Fux, Marc’Antonio Ziani, Georg Reutter the Younger, and Emperor Joseph I himself. Several works on the programme of this album have only recently had their modern premieres by Le Filigrane.
