Abstract / Summary: This double CD is technically the greatest interpretation of the history of recordings: Nella Anfuso sings in both contralto and soprano and realizes the transcendental virtuosity of Farinello (based for example on 25 trills performed in a single breath): trilli calati (falling), trilli cresciuti (rising,) trilli raddoppiati (double), messe dl voce, canto di sbalzo, agilità martellata, and also the “pathetic song” much loved by Tosi. For the first time are performed cadenzas and original “fiorituras” by Farinello.
