Callirhoe

Album by André Cardinal Destouches & Hervé Niquet & Le Concert Spirituel

Callirhoé is an opera by French composer André Cardinal Destouches, first performed in 1712. Rooted in the French Baroque tragédie en musique tradition, the work combines courtly dances, declamatory recitative and lyrical airs with orchestral colour typical of early-18th-century French opera, representing Destouches's contribution to the genre's development after Lully.
