Lost 18th-century gem by Gatti [world premiere]! (Daniel Behle, tenor)

[@redpriest26]

Thanks for sharing, this is an exquisite aria and easily on par with Mysliveček's horn bravura arias.

Thanks for the "rediscovery". The tenor and two horns "trio" is truly amazing. This beautiful emsemble reminds me of a similar emsemble at a Munich church years ago. (Horns, strings and harpsichord....)

The more often I listen to it, the more I love it. I can't decide whether I prefer this version or the other. Probably this one? The singing is simply sublime. It was as if Mr Behle was created in a lab for this kind of arias.

Felt to me like a very successful 1st attempt into a bravura-for-all Gatti's outpouring of virtuosity. I have to wonder how these musicians & singer would ripen into the piece, because it could turn out a hit gem!

Hi thanks. Sounds a little like leopold mozart. Shame it was lost so many years ago. Its nice to give it a new life. Thanks everyone.

Leopold is not known to have ever composed something remotely similar in quality to this aria, in fact Archbishop Colloredo at Salzburg hired composer and priest Luigi Gatti - and Leopold envied him for this preferential inconvenience as he wanted the kapellmeister position at Salzburg but he and his son Wolfgang will you know both expelled from the court of Salzburg and went on to work elsewhere. So now you are aware of the historical context and to even remotely associate Gatti's style with that of lackluster Leopold as insulting than a fair comparison. Haha either way I'll take your comment as an attempt at being complimentary and I appreciate it - just as a specialist I find it my due to clarify things at times jeje thanks 😉

@raymartinez4500 thanks. No offence taken and I appreciate your work. Keep doing what your doing.

Gatti quality is closer in style to that of his contemporaries: Anfossi, Paisiello, Monza, Gazzaniga, J.C. Bach, Mysliveček.
