Conductor:
Alan Curtis

Background: This recording from Alan Curtis brings together the two singers Joyce Di Donato and Patrizia Ciofi. This very original programme features duets from well-known operas alongside lesser-known works, some of which have never been recorded before. All the works pertain to love and jealousy, hence the title amor e gelosia.

Joyce Di Donato was the 2003 recipient of New York City Opera's Richard Gold Debut Award & 2002 Awardee of the Richard Tucker Music Foundation prize. Patrizia Ciofi: The very rapidly rising Italian coloratura sings a repertoire which ranges from Handel (Tamerlano) to Honegger, via Mozart, Bellini, Donizetti, Verdi.
