Description
Handel has always been an important part of Ian Bostridge's singing life. This recording partly sprung from his early roots in singing the oratorios and his familiarity with past British singers who made the Handel tenor a cultural fixture. The repertoire on this album is a mixture of English and Italian language arias from both opera and oratorios, some of which were originally written for castrati. The arias range from the famed Messiah aria `Ev'ry Valley' and `Ombra mai fu' (Serse) to the haunting `Total Eclipse' (Samson). In two arias (`Happy we' and `As steals the morn'), Bostridge is joined by British soprano Kate Royal, who has been signed as an exclusive artist by EMI Classics and is releasing her debut recording on the label later this year.
