2014 release from Vivica Genaux and Simone Kermes. RIVAL QUEENS explores the artistic legacies of the two legendary singers (Francesca Cuzzoni and Faustina Bordoni) and the heights of inspiration to which their rivalry moved the leading composers of their era. Featuring music by Bononcini, Handel, Leo, Lotti, Pollarolo, Porpora, and Porta, most of which has not been heard since the careers of Bordoni and Cuzzoni, RIVAL QUEENS explores the artistic legacies of the two legendary singers and the heights of inspiration to which their much-feted competition moved the important composers of the era.
