Albino e Plautilla

The adventures of the captain and the damsel unfold amid disguises and dances, romantic schemes and flirtations, leading to a happy ending. In the original play, the composer himself guides the audience through the story of his life.

Una voce dal basso

Between the late 17th and early 18th centuries, some of the greatest bass singers on the European stage emerged in Naples, among whom Antonio Manna stands out. The pages chronicling his vocal career reflect a virtuosity that fits perfectly into the operatic landscape of that era, when the symbiosis between performer and composer was absolute.
