Deutsche Grammophon presents the third release by countertenor Franco Fagioli. Handel's opera 'Serse' shines with the famous opening aria 'Ombra mai fu', in which the Argentinian artist takes on the lead role of the eccentric Persian king. Baroque soundscapes radiate with authentic power as Fagioli interprets Handel's compositions. This new recording takes the audience on an impressive musical journey that transcends time and space. Accompanied by the Italian Baroque ensemble Il Pomo d'Oro and renowned soloists, Fagioli brings new meaning to the Baroque spectacle and illuminates numerous undiscovered aspects of this famous composition.
