02. Se i languidi miei sguardi, SV 141
03. Ercole in Tebe, Act II: Da torbido nembo
04. Perchè fuggi, SV 128

07. Soave libertate, SV 130
08. Eliogabalo, Act I: Io resto solo?… Misero, così va
09. Toccata Quarta
10. Tornate, o cari baci, SV 129
11. Ercole in Tebe, Act II: Crudo Amor
12. Il Trespolo Tutore, Act III: Oh quanti soli – Così stà arioso… – Oblio, che lento aria – Le mie fiamme – Ah, gl’è meglio ridere – Ahimè, gl’è meglio piangere
13. Se pur destina e vole, SV 142
14. Ballo del Granduca
15. Ercole in Tebe, Act II: Entro l’orrida mole… Se per tè lieto mi lice

17. L’incoronazione di Poppea, Act III, SV 308: Pur ti miro, pur ti godo
The first of its kind, this duet album is a musical journey that draws back the curtain that has obscured gay love-stories for centuries. In the 17th century, Venice offered a liberal safe haven of sorts to the gay community of greater Europe. There are accounts of outed artists escaping to Venice to live and work amongst its more permissive culture. Almost 400 years later, we reconnect with this uncommonly tolerant place and time to share a history that is yet untold. The album includes vivid and charming duets from Monteverdi’s 7th book of madrigals as well as his touching musical love letters (lettere amorose). Additionally, there are four modern-day premieres of works by the little-known composers Boretti, Melani, and Castrovillari; including a moving duet for the lovers Hercules and Theseus as they exit the underworld hand-in-hand. Solo arias by Cavalli and Stradella depict the yearning of hidden love, and the recording culminates with one of the most beautiful duets of all time, ‘Pur ti miro’ from Monte verdi’s L’incoronazione di Poppea. This album is a recognition and celebration of gay love that spans the centuries.
