Background: An unusual and innovative project, Almirante is a pastiche opera comprising some of the most beautiful Baroque duets for soprano and alto by composers such as Bach, Purcell and Handel.

Almirante was the brain child of Baroque specialist Jörg Zwicker, and is a love story with a supplementary libretto by Thomas Höft which creates a dramaturgical framework to the musically diverse masterpieces, here elegantly sung by lyric coloratura Deborah York and Lydia Vierlinger. The different styles of composition help to present this dramatic love story in the most colourful scenario possible.
