'The composer Salvatore Sciarrino stands at the forefront of Italy's musical avant-garde. His chamber opera 'Luci mie traditrici' ('Oh My Betraying Eyes') was inspired by the murders by the Renaissance nobleman and composer Carlo Gesualdo of his wife and her lover. This production of the opera was first performed at the antiere Internazionale d'Arte di Montepulciano in Tuscany during July 2010. It has been recognised as the finest production of this work presented to date. The composer himself has stated that it is the reference point for the opera's performance.'
Recorded at the Cantiere Internazionale d'Arte di Montepulciano, 29-31 July and 1 August 2010
