Cantolopera is a series that proposes a totally new way to approach the great opera repertoire: versions for voice and piano of the most famous arias, accompanied by a compact disc containing the corresponding orchestral bases, recorded with a 130-piece orchestra, to allow the professional, the student and the opera fan to practice, as well as a version sung by an established artist for reference. Each volume contains the lyrics of the arias plus a short summary and background information on the 'Compagnia d'Opera Italiana' Orchestra and the performers. Baritone Volume 2 includes: "Largo al foctotum (Rossini)," "Udite, udite, o rustici (Donizetti)," "Tutto ‹ deserto ... Il balen del suo sorriso (Verdi)," "Cortigiani, vil razza dannata (Verdi)," "Di Provenza il mar, il suol (Verdi)," "Tre sbirri... Una carozza... (Puccini)," "Votre toast, je peux vous le rendre (Bizet)."
