Leclair/ Plewniak/ D'Amore - Scylla & GlaucusWhat if the tour de force of French opera in the Age of Enlightenment was Scylla et Glaucus? At the age of 50, the famous violinist Leclair decided to write his first operatic piece, investing irrepressible energy in it. The drama is unrelenting: the nymph Scylla spurns the advances of the Demigod Glaucus, who seeks out the sorceress Circe to cast a spell on her; Circe is in love with Glaucus, drives Scylla to madness and turns her into a deadly rock

notably some rare repertoire by Clementi and two of Bach's sons which was recorded for the ambitious Columbia History of Music educational project
