Porpora - Neapolitan & Cosmopolitan
In the course of musical history, Naples has dispatched a great number of its sons to conquer the world. Baroque monument Nicola Porpora undoubtedly ranks among the most successful of these sons, with a career which took him to Rome, Venice, Vienna, Dresden and London. With cantatas, opera fragments and instrumental work by this outstanding melodist, the Belgian ensemble Capriola di Gioia paints a portrait of this enterprising Neapolitan.
