This Da Vinci Classics album brings us back to bygone times, when touring virtuosos left their audiences breathless thanks to their virtuosity. Many instrumentalists used to present themselves with brilliant transcriptions, arrangements or paraphrases after well-known and beloved operatic scenes, capitalizing on their success in order to conquer the listeners taste. Flutist Angelo Patamia offers us a brilliant selection of such works, allowing him to express both his singing tone and his virtuosity, with arias from some of the best-known nineteenth-century operas - including Bizets Carmen, in Bornes version, Verdis Traviata, in Genins arrangement, and the touching "Dance of the Blessed Spirits" from Glucks Orfeo.
