Background: With her new album 'Sacrificium', and a major international concert tour, Cecilia Bartoli uncovers the extraordinary world of the 'castrati', and sings the glorious music they inspired. The 'Sacrificium' project will tell the story of the castrati in all its complexity; its beauty, glamour, controversy and cruelty.

The album focuses on the Neapolitan school, which produced superstar castrati including Farinelli and Caffarelli. 'The age of the castrati' inspired some of the most virtuosic repertoire ever written for the human voice; elaborate coloratura showpieces and beautiful slow arias, written for the extraordinary vocal abilities of the leading castrati.
