About

Saverio Mercadante composed an impressive number of works, and although they are not as well known as works from Italian contemporaries Donizetti and Rossini, they deserve no less credit.

Pelagio is an opera based on the story of the king of the Asturias Pelagio, who in 718 defeated the Arabs in the battle of Covadonga.

Dynamic are proud to release the world première recording.
