About

Previous recordings on CPO from the Boston Early Music Festival have been received with great acclaim.

Here, in corporation with the Boston Early Music Festival, CPO proudly present more Baroque opera, this time by the French composer Marc Antoine Charpentier. The main work on the disc is Charpentier’s Actéon, a tragédie en musique based on Greek myth. Alongside this are the chamber opera Orphée descendant aux Enfers (The descent of Orpheus to the Underworld) and La Pierre Philosophale.

1 CD in a boxed-set with 92 page booklet.
