With Tutti all’opera (ACD2 2847), Pentaèdre delves into the rich world of 19th-century Italian opera through works that reflect the evolution of wind instruments and the birth of the modern quintet. The program highlights leading composers such as Giuseppe Maria Cambini, author of the very first wind quintets, Giulio Briccialdi, flute virtuoso and teacher, and the famous Gioacchino Rossini.

With this program, Pentaèdre creates a dialogue between tradition and imagination in a vibrant tribute to Italian opera. Tutti all’opera transforms the energy of opera into a dazzling chamber music experience—an album for all music lovers that is not to be missed!
