Curiously, Rossini has composed two roles for a castrato: to Alceo in the cantata Il vero omaggio, and that of Arsaces in Aureliano in Palmira, both for Giambattista Velluti, the last castrato internationally renowned opera . Against the Argentine tenor Franco Fagioli has deliberately given up these roles to this album Rossini, preferring to focus on transvestites roles that address sexual ambiguity from another angle. In operas "serious" by Rossini, rarely given today, there are many male characters whose roles were written for singers. Already, in the Baroque era, the role of the "primo uomo" could be entrusted to a woman if we did not have the proper castrato. When castration went out of fashion in the early nineteenth century (although it was still practiced it, for one), the mezzo-sopranos finally reached their heyday replacing with great success in the castrati roles transvestites. But the objective of Fagioli is precisely to make these roles a bit of "purity and miraculous agility," Rossini said that both enjoy in the castrato voice. Naturally, we can only imagine what the voice Velluti. The Rossini Fagioli presents itself as an imaginary journey in time through works rarely Rossini data, many of the first maturity as Demetrio e Polibio or Adelaide di Borgogna.
