Additionally, Ars Lyrica Houston is honored to represent the only US recording nominated in the Opera Category.

The recording features Jamie Barton, mezzo-soprano; Ava Pine, soprano; Matthew Dirst, conductor.

Hasse’s Marc Antonio e Cleopatra double CD set was recently hailed by the Toronto Star, “One couldn’t ask for a finer world-première recording of this 1725 operatic dialogue between Cleopatra and her lover, Marc Antony.” This must-have recording, features two of the brightest young American opera stars: mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton as Marc Antonio and soprano Ava Pine as Cleopatra.

I'm resurrecting here some of the works that "disappeared" from Avax or were "abandoned" from the original uploaders. There's not a real project behind it, I'm just cleaning up my HDs and following the tide. What I downloaded long ago is flowing back. All credits go to the first uploader. Enjoy...
