The sacrifice of hundreds of thousands of boys in the name of music!
In 78 minutes of music (11 world premiere recordings) Cecilia Bartoli uncovers the extraordinary world of the "castrati" and sings arias inspired by the castrato superstars of Naples such as Farinelli and Caffarelli - including some of the most virtuosic music ever written for the human voice.

It also has the sung-texts in original Italian and the translations into German, English and French.
