Description
Domenico Cimarosa was the most famous and popular Italian composer of the second half of the eighteenth century. In the course of a brilliantly successful career he composed more than 65 operas, as well as a significant body of instrumental music and works for the church. His operas were performed all over Europe, both in Italian and in translation. A number of Cimarosa's operas continued to enjoy occasional stagings during the nineteenth century, and his most famous work, 'Il matrimonio segreto', is one of only a handful of operas of the period never to have left the repertory. Cimarosa's overtures are remarkable for their melodic invention, assured handling of the orchestra and sheer vitality.
