Volume 8 of Robert King's Vivaldi series brings astonishing vocal pyrotechnics from the brilliant young Norwegian mezzo soprano, Tuva Semmingsen (making her Hyperion début), alongside characteristically expressive performances from soprano Susan Gritton and rich sonorities from Nathalie Stutzmann and the double string orchestra which accompanies her in a particularly fine setting of the Salve Regina.
All of the music on this album is also available as part of the specially priced box set
