Norwegian boy-soprano Aksel Rykvvin has quickly built a reputation as a rare talent, combining an intelligent musicality with a beautifully resonant treble voice. On his debut recording he is accompanied by The Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment under Nigel Short. Many of the arias performed are considered too technically demanding for boy singers in the present day.
