During the time of its foundation in the year 2012, il Pomo d’Oro has created a fair number of recordings of baroque masterpieces, among them many complete operas, mostly by Georg Friedrich Handel, the great master of 18th century opera composition, but also some world premiere recordings of composers still to be rediscovered, like Stradella, Vinci, Orlandini, Giacomelli, Leo and many others. Many of these recordings recieved prestigious awards and excellent reviews in various countries worldwide. They would not have been possible without the generous support of donors!
We believe that recordings are still very important, even though sales of physical discs are decreasing substantially. Streaming in the last years has conquered also the classical music world, and it is offering not only access to a broad backlist of recordings never available to a wide audience before, but also almost unlimited distribution possibilities of new recordings.
These are our upcoming recording projects fort the year 2020, which need support mainly to finance the orchestra’s fees and accomodation, which is never paid by record companies anymore, and in some cases we also have to pay the sound engineers’ work ourselves. Please help us with:
