Background: The latest in the award-winning series of Vivaldi operas from Naïve features the renowned 'Modo Antiquo' with its director Federico Maria Sardelli and a fine cast including Sandrine Piau, Nathalie Stutzmann, and Paul Agnew in the world premier recording of 'Atenaide'.

After achieving fame in Venice, Vivaldi embarked in 1718 on an extensive period of travel, mostly within Italy. During his time in Florence he composed one of his most accomplished operas, L'Atenaide, which was performed on 29 December 1728 at the famous Teatro della Pergola, with Vivaldi's protégée, the excellent Anna Giro, in the title role. The work received an enthusiastic reception. L'Atenaide, which is set in ancient Byzantium, boasts a highly original style and music that is very rich. It incorporates an extraordinary number of arias written specially for the work or borrowed from other recent operas by Vivaldi.
