Rex Salomon by Tommaso Traetta - Theresia Orchestra & Christophe Rousset
From 01 April to 01 April Italy
The oratorio Rex Salomon by Tommaso Traetta is now available in a world premiere recording for CPO. Performed by Theresia Orchestra under the direction of Christophe Rousset, with research and edition by Simone Laghi, the recording was made in collaboration with the Innsbrucker Festwochen der Alten Musik in Summer 2023.
Composed during Traetta’s tenure at Venice’s Ospedaletto dei Derelitti, Rex Salomon tells the story of King Solomon, the Queen of Sheba, and the Ark of the Covenant, blending the depth of oratorio with the elegance of Italian opera.
