Description
The first three collections celebrating the Capriccio label’s 40th anniversary focused respectively on sacred, orchestral and chamber/solo music. This fourth and final Anniversary Box Set features singing stars from the label’s history. For example, there’s that pioneer of ‘counter-tenorism’, Jochen Kowalski. We also hear unexpected works from icons such as Peter Schreier (with lute accompaniment) and Hermann Prey (singing operetta), Italian fare from Alfredo Kraus and Ramón Vargas, and Cecilia Bartoli – discovered and first recorded by Capriccio – in her first and presumably only Wagner role! There are also the opera rarities that helped Capriccio establish a name for itself, with casts that would have turned heads even in the finest opera houses.
