This new release is the world premiere recording of Marco Tutino’s one act opera, Le Braci (“Embers”). With libretto also by Tutino, Le Braci is inspired by the novel of the same name by Sandor Marai. This production was recorded in Martina Franca, Italy, at the 41st Festival della Valle d’ltria. “A veritable sound track capable of transferring to and expressing in music the strong tensions that characterize this tormented story.” (Fabrizio Basciano)
