About

These are world premiere recordings, and these Handel specialists have once again scored a major coup. Alessandro Severo is based on the life of a Roman emperor of the third century and is in the form of a pasticcio.

Manzaro
composed the Greek national anthem, and the discovery of an opera by him was a major find by the Greek conductor George Petrou.
