Cavatina Duo at the Opera
BRIDGE 9448


$ 14.99

The 19th century “salon music” repertoire was characterized by the combination of hit tunes from popular operas combined with great instrumental virtuosity. The works performed by the Cavatina Duo on this album impressively demonstrate these phenomena, each a medley of favorite melodies from popular operas of the day. As this CD demonstrates, the Cavatina Duo (Eugenia Moliner, flute; Denis Azabagic, guitar) combine peerless technique with sensitive musicianship, making them the ideal interpreters of this repertoire.

 

Reviews:


With utterly breathtaking brilliance and a confidence that lets them take calculated risks in stride, the Cavatina Duo takes us on an enchanted itinerary through some of the most luxuriant music of 19th century opera.” - Phil’s Classical Reviews


If there is a finer flute and guitar duo in the world than Cavatina Duo, I have not heard them. Denis Azabagic and his wife flutist Eugenia Moliner are both world class virtuosi and brilliant musical interpreters.” - Soundboard


This duo’s liquid, dramatic, and highly expressive sensitivities soar with lyricism and infectious rhythms as they tour the constantly changing moods of this opera’s arias.” - American Record Guide
