Porpora: Se fedel cor mio tu sei

Description

‘
Forces: 2 sopranos, strings & continuo

The stunning duet which ends the first act of Porpora’s Componimento drammatico to a libretto by Metastasio. Commencing with an involved secco recit and followed by da capo form duet with a middle section in a different meter and mood, it involves Venus and Adonis (La Romanina and Farinelli) singing of their love for each other.
