Britten: Michelangelo Sonnets

Burnside, Iain;
Meli, Francesco

DVD OA CD9019 D

Francesco Meli is acclaimed for his mellifluous tenor in the French and Italian bel canto repertoire celebrated on this recital disc with songs and arias from Rossini to Massenet. Complementing these are song cycles by Liszt and Britten setting poems by two great figures of the Italian Renaissance, Michelangelo and Petrarch. • Presenting the major singers of today and the stars of tomorrow, the Rosenblatt Recitals are London's only world-class season of opera recitals. This new partnership with Opus Arte will see 5-6 CDs released per year, based predominantly on studio recordings with occasional bonus live tracks. • “People often say that the golden age of singing is dead. The Rosenblatt Recital Series is devoted to proving that bel canto – literally ‘beautiful singing’ in its broadest sense - is very much alive!” –Ian Rosenblatt
