Ottavio Dantone

Background: One of the truly outstanding voices of today, star countertenor Andreas Scholl celebrates one of the 18th Century's greatest vocal superstars - the remarkable male alto known as Senesino. Senesino's place in history was secured by his extraordinary association with Handel.

Scholl's exquisite voice, beloved of critics and audiences, pure, penetrating, virtuosic and deeply characterful, is a remarkable match for the voice of Senesino.

In a series of virtuosic showpiece arias Scholl celebrates Senesino from the very start of his career to the very last aria he is known to have sung - and Handel is not the only composer featured, as the album will also include premiere recordings of arias by other Baroque greats.
