Synopsis

Product Description
"Mandolini all'Opera" is a refined reworking of the music whose roots lie in the tradition of the Italian plectrum clubs, which, between 19th and 20th century, popularized opera amongst the common people who could not afford to attend the opera houses. The repertoire is of legendary arias taken from famous Italian operas, and if on paper the union between a mandolin orchestra and the melodramatic tradition of opera seems unlikely and hazardous, after you press "play" on your CD player, it will only take a few seconds to be enveloped in an enchanting, old time atmosphere.
