Album Description
2010 Naxos2010 Naxos
Immerse yourself in the rich, historical tapestry of 18th-century English opera with Johann Christoph Pepusch's "Polly," a captivating work that blends the wit of Henry Fielding's libretto with the vibrant musical genius of Pepusch. Released on Naxos in 2010, this album offers a unique glimpse into the operatic traditions of the early 1700s, showcasing Pepusch's mastery of the ballad opera style.
"Polly" is a sequel to John Gay's famous "The Beggar's Opera," and it continues the story of the love between Polly Peachum and the highwayman Macheath. The album spans a little over an hour and a half, featuring a rich array of arias and instrumental pieces that bring the dramatic narrative to life. Each track is meticulously performed, capturing the essence of the period and the spirit of the characters.
From the lively overture to the dramatic arias and the enchanting dances, this album is a testament to Pepusch's ability to create engaging and emotionally resonant music. The performances are brought to life by a talented cast of singers and musicians, each contributing to the overall richness of the experience. Whether you're a seasoned opera enthusiast or a curious newcomer, "Polly" offers a delightful journey through the musical landscape of a bygone era.
