The history of castrati is always a conversation-provoking topic, and for good reason! Countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo, who currently stars as Orfeo in Gluck’s Orfeo ed Euridice, was kind enough to dive into the history of castrati, the origins of the role of Orfeo, and more as we prepare for the final performance of the season on June 8!

The sound that emerges belongs to the courts of Venice in 1724, yet it lands in our modern ears with the force of something utterly new. This is the countertenor voice—a register so rare, so technically demanding, that for centuries it was almost lost to history.

Here I sat down with the fellers for a quick chat about the music and what to expect once they release the EP. Had a blast recording these fellers and am looking forward to hearing the finished work #manchestermusicscene #recordingstudio #musicstudios #stockport #stockportmusicscene
