Background: Who else but Philippe Jaroussky could today bring to life the beauty of Carestini's voice? Each of his recitals bring his wonderful qualities to the fore, be it in the beauty of his voice, or his intelligent musicianship. This album will stir the public's taste for beauty and virtuosity, as was the case at the time of the famous castrato to whom Philippe pays homage.

To accompany him, the firmly established Baroque conductor now of international repute, Emmanuelle Haïm, and her ensemble Le Concert d'Astrée.
