The 70 operas by Ferdinando Bertoni (1725 - 1813) are almost all forgotten, except for his Orfeo. The opera is based on the same libretto as Gluck's Orfeo ed Euridice, and was also composed for the same castrato, Gaetano Guadagni. Unlike Gluck however Bertoni created a true-opera scenario, which celebrates its rediscovery here in this recording with Vivica Genaux.
