About this product
Little is known about the life of Francisco Antonio de Almeida but he occupied a central position in Portuguese life in the first half of the 18th century and was able to learn the Italian style in Rome thanks to the ambitions of King Jouo V. The rarely recorded La Spinalba ovvero Il vecchio matto (Spinalba or the Mad Old Man) is a comic opera which follows the buffa tradition of intrigue and romantic complexities and is filled with superb cantabile arias as well as a rich variety of original and dramatic orchestral effects. The cast is led by Ana Quintans a much-in-demand soloist on the early music scene and the highly regarded Portuguese ensemble Os Mosicos do Tejo is directed by it's co-founder Marcos Magalhoes.

The repertoire included in this recording by Marco Molaschi represents an important evidence in the panorama of harpsichord music of the eighteenth century. It was precisely as a harpsichord and singing teacher that Paradisi met his success in London, where he moved after his studies in his native Naples. Charles Burney - an important historian of English music - called him Inchthe great master of the harpsichordInch. The sonatas in the collection - dedicated to King George II of England - were published in 1754, precisely in the composer's London period and contributed significantly to affirming his fame as a virtuoso and composer of keyboard music.

Monteverdi's Sixth Book of Madrigals, which appeared nine years after his previous volume, was conceived as his final, though highly significant contribution to the stile antico. This was on the point of being consigned to history by the solo vocal style.
