Following his highly acclaimed recording of Porpora cantatas, he returns for a second solo album with Hyperion, a selection of arias written for Gaetano Guadagni. Italian-born Guadagni was the first \\u2018modern\\u2019 castrato, famed all over Europe for the lyric purity of his voice and his powerful, naturalistic acting style. Not only did he enjoy a close artistic relationship with Handel, who nurtured Guadagni\\u2019s voice to fit the alto roles in his English oratorios, but he effectively created the role of Orpheus in Gluck\\u2019s Orfeo ed Euridice, an opera he thoroughly made his own. Here, Iestyn Davies is joined again by the renowned period-instrument band Arcangelo, directed by Jonathan Cohen.\u003cp\u003eO Lord, whose mercies numberless (from Saul ) (HANDEL)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rapturd soul (from Theodora) (HANDEL)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYet, can I hear that dulcet lay (from The Choice of Hercules) (HANDEL)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDestructive war (from Belshazzar) (HANDEL)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccompagnato Ah che dissi!
