Bulgarian mezzo-soprano Vesselina Kasarova has chosen arias from five of Handel’s operas closely linked with the vocal art of Carestini, one of the most famous singers from the composer’s time
Vesselina will be making several appearances at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, throughout October and November 2008 in their production of Rossini’s Matilde di Shabran
“A Bulgarian voice to blast you off your feet…Her vocal range is stunning” The Independent
“This is singing of great nobility and expressive power, accompanied by instrumental work of exceptional dignity from Il Complesso Barocco. Deeply touching and highly recommended.” The Guardian, 14th November 2008 ****
