Internationally acclaimed tenor Rolando Villazsn presents an all-new recording of Italian arias by Handel. Though Villazsn is not generally associated with this repertoire, his muscular and virile performances are a thrilling and new way to hear Handel. Paul McCreesh a noted Handel expert and the exciting Gabrieli Players join Villazsn giving the listener both an authentic period performance as well as a new twist on familiar Handel. To suit his voice, Villazsn performs not only tenor arias, but also transposed mezzo arias a practice familiar to Handel. This is a unique and wonderfully thrilling album completely unlike Villazsns previous recordings.
