Music and libretti
The sheer beauty of his melodies alone would make an album of Caldara's works worthwhile. The album displays his operatic works, and shows us a side of Caldara that is often neglected - his capability for dramatic arias.
The album ends with an absolute gem - the aria "Se un core annodi" with Vocanima Köln, showing Caldara at his most sensitive and humorous. <! --
Title and artwork
The selection of music on the eponymous album "Forgotten Arias" refers to the circumstance that many composers, though immensely popular in their own time, are largely forgotten. The album is part of an ongoing effort to reestablish some - many would say unjustly - "forgotten" or rather, neglected composers.
