Treasure hunt: Cecilia Bartoli ferrets out the forgotten geniuses of the opera world.(mezzo sopranos views on Antonio Salieri)(Interview)
He was asked to write the first opera ever performed at La Scala. He taught Beethoven the art of Italian word-setting. He was a central figure in the Academy Award-winning Milos Forman film Amadeus. Now Antonio Salieri is really going to hit the big time with Cecilia Bartoli's new album of some of his arias. Last July, the superstar Italian mezzo deftly answered questions about eighteenth-century performance practice via cell phone as she piloted her car through the Saturday-afternoon traffic in Rome.
OPERA NEWS: Before we get to Salieri, I'd like to follow up on your Vivaldi and Gluck aria albums. Have they led to any performances of the complete operas?
