Catalogue Note

Il s'agit de l'unique exemplaire en France (RISM). Orfeo ed Euridice, créé à Venise le 3 janvier 1776, et composé selon les règles de la réforme gluckienne, est le seul opéra de Bertoni qui ait été imprimé intégralement de son vivant.

The only copy recorded by RISM in France. Orfeo ed Euridice, first performed at Venice on 3 January 1776, and composed along Gluckian reform lines, was Bertoni's only opera to be printed in full score in his lifetime.
