Notes and Editorial Reviews

Now that the world has had its eyes opened to the artistic and architectural treasures of the late 18th century in the Brazilian region of Minas Gerais, Ensemble Turicum reveals on this CD the full splendour of the music of Antonio dos Santos Cunha. It constitutes an exceptional blend of Italian opera with Portuguese melancholy and Brazilian tropical tenderness that produces marvellously profound and expressive results.
