Three Cantatas For Soprano and Continuo / Ed. Brian W. Pritchard.

Caldara was a contemporary of Vivaldi, and nearly as prolific as him. About half of his approximately three hundred cantatas were written between 1709 and 1715 when he was maestro di cappella for Prince Ruspoli in Rome. These three cantatas, Lungi dall’ idol mio, Partenza and Il Gelsomino, each consist of two lyrical or dramatic arias preceded by recitatives. The editor has provided realisations of the continuo part.
