Cecilia Bartoli returns with a majestic new album of world premiere recordings, hidden treasures of the Mariinsky!

Niall O'Rourke, Creative Director for Decca Classics, comments on the photo shoot;

"I felt like Nick Fury when we photographed Cecilia Bartoli for her new album St Petersburg - calling on her trusted photography team to assemble in Switzerland in January 2014. The attention to detail and commitment to perfection was inspiring. Acclaimed photographer Uli Weber was once again at the helm, aided by Bruno Tarallo (make-up) and Billi Curie (Hair). Costume designer Agostino Cavalca brought reams of fake fur and handfuls of sparkling jewels to evoke the spirit of Anna Karenina. But above all, there was Cecilia herself, more dazzling than ever."

For the very first time Cecilia Bartoli explores the Baroque musical treasures of Tsarist Russia with music from the court of three 18th century Tsaristas: Anna, Elizabeth and Catherine the Great. With music written by Italian and German composers working for the Russian court, this album sheds new light on an incredible and momentous time for Russia, shaping its politics and culture towards the enlightened West.

Mostly sung in Italian, the album also offers the first opportunity to hear Bartoli sing in Russian. The music has been intricately researched by Cecilia herself, unlocking the archives of St Petersburg's Mariinsky Library to uncover music lost for over 200 years. The new recording reunites Bartoli with Baroque specialists Diego Fasolis & I Barrochisti.
