Gluck Opera Arias

Gluck Opera Arias

Celebrating the 300th anniversary of Glucks birth, Daniel Behle presents this album of Glucks lesser known opera arias. Showcasing their rich variety of styles, he illustrates that these works are primed for revival

Daniel Behle is accompanied by one of Europes leading Baroque orchestras, Armonia Atenea, conducted by the extraordinary George Petrou

Making a first Decca appearance on Cecilia Bartolis recording of Steffanis Stabat Mater, Daniel Behles highly thought-of tenor voice has been compared with legends such as Richard Tauber and Anton Dermota

Four world premiere recordings are featured in a programme which includes arias from ten different Gluck operas

Greeces Armonia Atenea, conducted by George Petrou, continue to build their reputation as one of Europes leading Baroque orchestras

This album is being released in conjunction with Beethovens Creatures of Prometheus (also conducted by George Petrou in a searing performance with Armonia Atenea) in June 2014

Throughout, he demonstrates admirable evenness of tone across his range, and the ability to subtly convey the intricacies of religious devotion. (The Independent)

This album coincides with the release of Gluck: The Great Operas - a set featuring seven full operas, and a special disc of historical recordings and rarities, paying homage to the key role of this composer in the development of opera as an art form
