Porpora's Cantatas abound in elaborate recitatives that inspired later generations of composers. One cannot miss noticing various original instrumental techniques (like violin accompagnato, cello arpeggios) and unusual harmonies. The arias are written for performers representing a high level of musical skill and are characterized by beautiful melodies underlining the expression of the literary text.
The name of the prematurely deceased (at the age of 29) Johann Gottlieb Goldberg went down in history mostly thanks to Johann Sebastian Bach's well-known “Goldberg Variations”.
